You're my hero! This is why I read this thread (already some time ago), as I'm mostly using ShellOut for other programs (Topaz, StarNet, DeepSNR...). I tried to 'revert' the NIK-only script to also use other programs, but failed miserably
So thousand thanks for making it available. Maybe you should post a separate thread for this, so it is easier to find for those that are in a similar situation?That said, I tried your script - and it wouldn't work! It opened the requested program, but didn't pass the image to it.
After some trial-and-error I could track it down to the call
Code:
child = subprocess.Popen(args, shell=True)Without shell=True it does work. I found a Note in the docs
Quote:Changed in version 3.12: Changed Windows shell search order for shell=True. The current directory and %PATH% are replaced with %COMSPEC% and %SystemRoot%\System32\cmd.exe. As a result, dropping a malicious program named cmd.exe into a current directory no longer works.Not sure if that is related, as I am on Linux (Python 3.13.13). But maybe it's some upstream Bug in the context of this change...
