Answer 1

First off, I agree with others that you should edit your code to separate the logic from the command line argument handling.

But in cases where you're using other libraries and don't want to mess around editing them, it's still useful to know how to do equivalent command line stuff from within Python.
The solution is os.system(command)
Atleast on Windows, it brings up a console and executes the command, just the same way as if you had entered it into the command prompt.

import os
os.system('getCameras.py "path_to_the_scene" ')
