Its tricky but if you know their names and they are only produced from your master you could use 'ps' and 'grep' to get the pids. You can then attach to the pids. But its very messy. It is probably more reliable to replace your top level process with Python code, but that depends on how complex that code is... Thee may be other ways to get the pids using lower level proc type calls but you still have the problem of identifying which pids you are interested in! All I can think of at this time of night!
