<p>The <a class="reference internal" href="#module-commands" title="commands: Utility functions for running external commands.

take a system command as a string and return any output generated by the command

<p>The <a class="reference internal" href="subprocess.html#module-subprocess" title="subprocess: Subprocess management."><tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">subprocess</span></tt></a> module provides more powerful facilities for spawning new
