python and command shell on Windows

[josu]

Hi

I am trying to execute a windows command based on a shell by mean of
python. I have proven subprocess

test=subprocess.Popen
(['shell_command'],shell=True,stdin=PIPE,stdout=PIPE)

Initally, all seems ok, but, after seconds the python shell is frozen.

Does someone know alternative ways valid for windows OS?

Thanks in advance

os.startfile() works you will find the pipe commands are different on
unix and windows anyway.
