I don't think so but it is my fault. When I asked the question I thought I gave enough info but I see now that I didn't.
The os.startfile('socket-nongui.py) line was in a gui program that demonstrates how to start and communicate with a non-gui program. It is Windows specific so I looked for but could not find a drop in replacement that works on Linux.
