it helps if you include the actual error message in your post, so we 
don't have to guess.

the line you quoted should give you a "SyntaxError: invalid syntax" 
message; the "os.system" call takes a Python string object, so the 
correct syntax is:

     os.system("gmmtrain -o output -i /etc.../")

if that doesn't help, please post the *entire* traceback; also see:
