-"""Execute shell commands via os.popen() and return status, output.
-
-Interface summary:
-
- import commands
-
- outtext = commands.getoutput(cmd)
- (exitstatus, outtext) = commands.getstatusoutput(cmd)
- outtext = commands.getstatus(file) # returns output of "ls -ld file"
-
-A trailing newline is removed from the output string.
-
-Encapsulates the basic operation:
-
- pipe = os.popen('{ ' + cmd + '; } 2>&1', 'r')
- text = pipe.read()
- sts = pipe.close()
-
- [Note: it would be nice to add functions to interpret the exit status.]
