Title Body

I am trying to make a PyGtk Gui, that has a button. When the user presses this button, gnome-terminal prompts the user to write their password. Then it will clone this Git repository for gedit JQuery snippets. And then, it copies the js.xml file to /usr/share/gedit/plugins/snippets/js.xml In the end, it forcefully removes the Git repository. The command: gnome-terminal -x sudo git clone git://github.com/pererinha/gedit-snippet-jquery.git && sudo cp -f gedit-snippet-jquery/js.xml /usr/share/gedit/plugins/snippets/js.xml && sudo rm -rf gedit-snippet-jquery It works fine in my terminal. But, via the GUI it just opens, I add my password, press enter, and then it closes again. I'd like to only run the command to the first && This is my Python function (with command): def on_install_jquery_code_snippet_for_gedit_activate(self, widget): """ Install Jquery code snippet for Gedit. """ cmd="gnome-terminal -x sudo git clone git://github.com/pererinha/gedit-snippet-jquery.git && sudo cp -f gedit-snippet-jquery/js.xml /usr/share/gedit/plugins/snippets/js.xml && sudo rm -rf gedit-snippet-jquery" p = Popen(cmd, shell=True, stdin=PIPE, stdout=PIPE, stderr=STDOUT, close_fds=False) self.status.set_text(p.stdout.read()) #show response in 'status
