Not hooking python

[simonzack]

When I run python in the idle shell

import subprocess
subprocess.call([r'C:\Program Files\Python35\python.exe'])

The conemu window does not pop up and the windows command prompt does.

My list of hooked executables include:

python.exe|pythonw.exe

Shell? Do not mean python.exe?
It's console application, the are not processed by DefTerm engine. You have to use -new_console switch

@Maximus5 I mean idle which comes with python, it's a gui for the command-line version of python (I actually use ipython + jupyter but I think this is easier for testing). You can run idle using "C:\Program Files\Python35\pythonw.exe" "C:\Progra~1\Python35\Lib\idlelib\idle.pyw".

Under idle the subprocess commands can be run which pops up a console window not caught by conemu:

import subprocess
subprocess.call([r'C:\Program Files\Python35\python.exe'])

I'm not sure what you mean by new_console, isn't the purpose of a default console to replace any cmd prompt that pops up?

[Maximus5]

That happens because of python's Idle architecture crazyness.

The window "Python 3.4.x Shell" is created within one pythonw.exe, which is hooked by DefTerm properly, but command (python.exe) is executed within child pythonw.exe process, which is not hooked, obviously, because it has no GUI window!

So I'm having the same problem. I use a voice command to execute a python script and would like the script to run in the ConEmu console and not the py.exe terminal. Any way to accomplish that?
