Re: Question on how to open other programs and files

Here is one way;

#!/usr/bin/python
import subprocess
print "Starting Adobe Reader "

def startReader():
        myreader = "acroread"
        fname = "test.pdf"
        print "Loading ", fname

        subprocess.call([myreader, fname])

def main():
        startReader()

if __name__ == "__main__":
        main()
