- _nt_quote_args(args)
- Quote command-line arguments for DOS/Windows conventions: just
wraps every argument which contains blanks in double quotes, and
returns a new argument list.
- _spawn_nt(cmd, search_path=1, verbose=0, dry_run=0)
- _spawn_posix(cmd, search_path=1, verbose=0, dry_run=0)
- find_executable(executable, path=None)
- Try to find 'executable' in the directories listed in 'path' (a
string listing directories separated by 'os.pathsep'; defaults to
os.environ['PATH']). Returns the complete filename or None if not
found.
- spawn(cmd, search_path=1, verbose=0, dry_run=0)
- Run another program, specified as a command list 'cmd', in a new
process. 'cmd' is just the argument list for the new process, ie.
cmd[0] is the program to run and cmd[1:] are the rest of its arguments.
There is no way to run a program with a name different from that of its
executable.
If 'search_path' is true (the default), the system's executable search
path will be used to find the program; otherwise, cmd[0] must be the
exact path to the executable. If 'verbose' is true, a one-line summary
of the command will be printed before it is run. If 'dry_run' is true,
the command will not actually be run.
Raise DistutilsExecError if running the program fails in any way; just
return on success.
