# MPH #

---

MPH (managed program host) is a Python package providing an API for interfacing

with arbitrary executables in a generic way. It should be noted that MPH is not

a virtual machine, nor is it a emulator of any sort. MPH simply provides an API

for providing input and output to arbitrary executables.

Using MPH, users can provide input to arbitrary guest executables and retrieve

the output (on both `stdout` and `stderr`) and the return value of the program.

# Examples #

    from mph import program

    prog = program.Program("/path/to/myprog", [])   # initialise program

    prog.append_string_stdin("Hello, world!")       # write to stdin

    prog.exec()                                     # run program

    # check return value of gues executable

    if prog.retval == 0:

        print(prog.stdout)

    else:

        print("Inferior returned with return code " + str(prog.retval) + "\n")
