One way is to use java directly:

import java
prc = java.lang.exec('your.exe ' + someArgument)
prc.getOutputStream().close() # evt. write into it first
exitValue = prc.waitFor()
prc.getInputStream().close() # evt. read this first
prc.getErrorStream().close() # idem.

I have not checked the new os module yet. It might be even more portable.

Good luck,
Ype
