Python and wxPython as front end to C++ program

Hi,

I've written a command line utility for the Sun machine at work in C++ that
I'd like to put a nicer interface around. Is it possible to write a Python
program with wxPython that would act as a GUI 'wrapper' to this command line
utility? The utility program accepts command line arguments to do its work
and only outputs to cout and cerr. Can Python feed the utility an argument
(which I think is easy) and catch and display the cout/cerr messages?

Thanks in advance,
Doug
