Thanks again for your help. I tried something similar to what you suggested:
def run_app(self, app_path):
args = shlex.split(app_path.replace("\\", ""))
args = [arg.replace("", "\\") for arg in args]
args[0] = os.path.expandvars(args[0])
try:
if pywin32:

Thank you for your replies. I tried what you suggested in your second post and
it worked.
That was actually a mistake in the app_list.xml file. As you said:
%ProgramFiles%\LibreOffice 4\program\swriter.exe
"C:\Users\Timothy\Documents\myfile.odt"
should instead be:
"%ProgramFiles%\LibreOffice
Thank you for your reply.
I think I'll use PyWin32 if it's available on the user's system, and otherwise
fall back to using subprocess.Popen, since I want my script to be
cross-platform. os.startfile won't work for me because you can't pass arguments
to the file being started. (When I first ask

Sorry for not being explicit enough. I am aware that this would work if I
called python.exe path-to-script.py with shell=False.
In my Python program, I parse an XML file like the one I have included below.
Then I loop through the paths of the apps listed in it and run them by calling
something
You need to call python.exe path-to-script.py, I think, not just
path-to-script.py. See sys.executable (though that depends on if you're a
frozen app or not).
I can't be sure though because there's no code. Show code when asking
questions, it helps frame the discussion and get a better answer ;)
I have written a Python script with a wxPython GUI that uses subprocess.Popen
to open a list of files that the user provides. One of my users would like to
be able to run a Python script with my application. The Python script he is
trying to run uses the command line and gets keyboard input from
11 matches
