Thx George
You've got further than I have!
I tried to use subprocess before trying pexpect but failed.
pexpect was suggested by experts on the python forum.
Unfortuntely they appear incapable of correcting my trivial example of
opening a terminal and sending the command 'gdb' to it.
Any snippets most welcome.
Looking at my repositories I see libdevel-gdb-perl.
I like python's orderliness but have noticed that when python fails perl
usually delivers.
