Thanks for the quick response.
I understand that MS-DOS is not a multi-threaded OS. However, in C, for ex=
ample, I can use the system() call to run another program from within my C =
program.
This is what I am trying to do with PythonD. I want to be able to execute =
another command and capture its output (stdout and stderr). Is there somew=
ay to do that with PythonD?
Thanks,
Lowell

The os.fork method cannot possibly work on MS-DOS, which is a single-proces=
s OS.
