[vjp08]

Hi,
i want to run a python script from another python sript as a new process. i have tried with spawn functions of os module but it didnt work. i guess these functions work on only Linux. how to create a new process on windows platform..

You can use the subprocess module

import subprocess
child = subprocess.Popen("myprog.py")

see the documentation of this module. There are other ways to call your program;

child = subprocess.Popen("python myprog.py", shell=True)

for example.
