That would work, but not for what I want. See the file could be anywhere on

As Carsten pointed out, we don't really know what you're doing. Or at
least, I don't. Why do you even want to do string substitution? How
does the user navigate to the files that the user wants to open? Are
you using a GUI or a command line interface?

Anyway, Google is your friend. Searching for "python subprocess" gives
you this:
