Hi 

Actually that what I wat in the end is a method for subsclassing the
python stdio's into my application window. This means that Python runs
in background with all  threes stdio streams redirected .
This is I believe somehow done    in the Komodo program from
ActiveState
As far as I have found out You need to define a Input and  output
class  and imlement Read Readline , Write and WriteLine  method in
these classes.  
Otherwise it will be necessary to somehow capture the Stdin stdout
streams  from python console  and redirect them .

with regards
Jan
