There is a reason (though it is not special).  I'm new to Python.  I
looked at all the documentation on subprocess, as well as popen.  I
couldn't figure it out, so I thought an example (which I thank you for
providing) would help me along (which it did).  Is there a special
reason for you having a problem with me asking for help?  I thought
that's what this group is for.
