do()

def pts.do.prompt.do

(

commandline

)

This function performs a command script as if it were invoked from the command line.

The The commandline argument should not include the program part (i.e. "pts"); the first token is the specification of the command script. The commandline argument can be one of the following:

• A single string providing the complete command; in this case the tokens are extracted by splitting on whitespace so a token cannot include whitespace.
• An iterable of strings specifying the individual tokens of the command; in this case a token can include whitespace.
