make the code wait #4

Closed SL-Pirate closed 2 years ago

SL-Pirate commented 2 years ago

Is there any method to make my code wait until the terminal process is completed like the wait() function in the subprocess module?

Or is there anyway just to make the terminal widget get destroyed automatically after the terminal process is done?

I don't think I've implemented the wait functionality yet. However, it works like a normal shell which should support the cmd command sleep 30 and combined use of thread you can achieve something similar

Well actually all I want is just run my app and when the user says run {this} command then pop a terminal in a window and run the specific command and when it's done simply destroy the window automatically. The catch is I can't tell how much time will the command take to execute. So I can't really use the time module. I tried subprocess.Popen but for a specific command (ffmpeg) my code just waits until the command is executed when it shouldn't be waitig. For other commands it doesn't have that proble and I can't figure out why. :(
