How to execute a makefile from LINUX system.

[gaurav kashyap]

Hi all,
I am using Link-41b parser in my program.
The windows version of it has an .exe file that can be executed using
os.system command
On Linux version,I have a makefile.

so my question is:
How to run the makefile using some python function.

Thanks

Use the 'subprocess' module
(http://docs.python.org/library/subprocess.html#module-subprocess) to
run the 'make' command in the same working directory as the Makefile
with the appropriate target as an option.
