I get the example os.system('ls -al') no problem.
i'm trying to create a variable with my command built in it but needs to include quotes.
Portion of code is as follows:
someip = '192.168.01.01'
var1 = 'lynx -dump http://' + someip + '/cgi-bin/xxxx.log&.submit=+++Go%21+++ > junk'
print var1
os.system(var1)
If I print var1 it looks right . If I use the os.system(var1) as above it seems to have a problem near the end of the string with msg
sh: .submit=+++Go%21+++: command not found
clearly there is some escape sequence that I don't understand .
I tried combinations of single and double quotes and mixed around var1 in os.system(), but that generates command not found.
I need it to look like how I enter it manually and works
lynx -dump 'http://192.168.01.01/cgi-bin/xxxx.log&.submit=+++Go!+++ > junk'
Probably obvious to many but i'm spinning my wheels. many thanks for help .
