If you want to make this work under linux change the argument to
["python","test.py"]
Linux wants the command in the first string and you have told it the command
is "python test.py" so it looks for that. Linux allows you to make the
executable and the command be different so you could have
(executable='python',["MyProgram","test.py"],.
This way if you do ps in linux it will show up as MyProgram instead of
python. Anyway either of those should work.
If you want this to work in python3.1 you just need to change the print to
have the parenthesis around the "" string and then fix the Popen statement
as I said above and it will work there as well.
Enjoy.

Hi Jim,
Sorry I forgot to indicate how to run it.
If the two files are saved as runTest.py and test.py in the same directory,
then starting runTest.py will launch the other and run the text interface
until exit is typed.

Code follows:
--------
# test.py a simulated chess engine
import sys
# chess engine main processing loop:
while True:
# get player's move from GUI:
playerMove = sys.stdin.readline().strip('\n')
# process command:
if playerMove == 'e4':
engineMove = 'e5'
elif playerMove == 'd4':
engineMove = 'd5'
else:
engineMove = 'Unknown move!'
# send the engine response move back:
sys.stdout.write("%s\n" % engineMove)
# the following seems required:
sys.stdout.flush()
