How to get the return status of a command runned by os.popen4

[Terry Byrne]

Alain,

I've had good luck on Windows NT 4 with the following  combination:

    cmdPipe = os.popen(aCmdLine)
    resultStream = cmdPipe.read()

At this point you can read resultStream for any stdout feedback
returned by aCmdLine. Is that what you need?
