python 调用top命令获取输出信息
问题：如何在linux上通过python脚本获取命令行的显示结果来进行处理？
解决方法： 1. python2.7版本有commands包 2. python3.x版本使用subprocess
下面是使用python3.4版本的示例 前面已解决使用python脚本选出top命令中cpu使用率最高的进程，现在解决如何获取top命令的回显信息。
在linux mint上执行top命令，可以看到不断刷新的top信息。使用top -n 1 可以看到某一时刻的top信息：
对应的代码实现是：
#!/usr/bin/env python3
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import subprocess
#
#variable 'out' is subprocess output info
top_info = subprocess.Popen(["top", "-n", "1"], stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
out, err = top_info.communicate()
#output info get from console has many unicode escape character ,such as \x1b(B\x1b[m\x1b[39;49m\x1b[K\n\x1b(B\x1b[m
#use decode('unicode-escape') to process
out_info = out.decode('unicode-escape')
print(out_info)
lines = []
lines = out_info.split('\n')运行结果：
ps：如果没有处理unicode-escape，得到的运行结果将是：
