what is the Pythonic way to do os.execve()

[Skaperen]

i've done execve() many times in my C programming. what i need to do in this little project is to invoke a command in the same process as the script invoking it. in Bash, this done by having "exec " in front of the command. i also need to direct its output to specific files. there is no such option in os.execve() to do such a redirection. i thought maybe some other method in some other module might have a "invoke in caller process" option in addition to ways to redirect. for now, i am doing the redirection using os.open() and os.dup2(). but this depends on file descriptors.
