New question #214804 on Sikuli:

I am trying to call a windows console based application as a workaround to a
serial access problem.
As debug I have tried
cmd = "cmd.exe" # known app in path
commands.getstatusoutput(cmd)
and
commands.getoutput(cmd)
but the application hangs, or I get an error '{' is not recognized as an
internal or external command,
operable program or batch file. I suspect this is related to jython calls per
http://www.jython.org/docs/library/commands.html which says "cmd is actually
run as { cmd ; } 2>&1". This wouldn't be valid in windows, and would give this
error.
I have tried
os.popen(cmd).readlines()[-1]
and
subprocess.check_output(cmd)
then just
subprocess.call(cmd)
all with various combinations of full path, quoting ('"cmd.exe"' and "cmd.exe")
and path escaping per the jython docs, but the application just hangs.
What method is best for calling applications in WinXP?
Thanks
