Comment (by jdemeyer):
Replying to [comment:26 nbruin]:
> A priori, there may be loads of reasons why os.system might return an
OSError
You mean `subprocess.call`, not `os.system`. Yes, this is an important
difference!
I would say it's highly unlikely that `subprocess.call` raises an
`OSError` which is ''not'' because the file does not exist or is not
executable. The only thing I can think of is running out of memory...
> If `$SAGE_LOCAL/bin/runsnake` exists but is not executable, an error is
also more appropriate
I completely disagree with this, see previous comment.
