[Zope] Executing Shell Script

[Juergen R. Plasser / Hexagon]

I use the following short Python script for testing purposes only (located 
in the Extensions folder):

from os import popen2

def exeshell(self):
        """ exeshell executes shell command """

        (stin,stout) = popen2('script')
        stin.close()
        result = stout.read()
        stout.close()

        return result

The script is called via External Method.

hth,
Juergen
