You need to set stdout to be a file like object, so just open a file in write mode and use that as the stdout.
Something like: ofile = open(path_to_the_output_file, 'w') subprocess.call(["./x"], stdout=ofile) If you don't need to save the output to a file and you just want to compute something with it you can just do: output = subprocess.call(["./x"], stdout=subprocess.PIPE) And output will have the result. -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
