The problem comes in that the dos program requires three inputs (input1.txt, input2.txt and input3.txt - see attached picture) but I cannot find a way of getting this information to the dos program from python. Any ideas?
I've sometimes written python code to create wsh (and other) scripts that I then run from within python. WSH include a sendkeys command IIRC that works with dos/command/cmd windows. There's likely ways to use the win32 api as well (win32api.keybd_event?).
I currently use a tool called macroScheduler from www.mjtnet.com just for the windows automation tasks I run into (scripted from within python).
There's also http://pypi.python.org/pypi/SendKeys/0.3, but at this point if I were to start over I'd look closely at http://www.rutherfurd.net/python/sendkeys/
