title: Monitor Process in Python?
body: <p>I think this is a pretty basic question, but here it is anyway.</p>
  
  <p>I need to write a python script that checks to make sure a process, say notepad.exe, is running. If the process is running, do nothing. If it is not, start it. How would this be done.</p>
  
  <p>I am using Python 2.6 on Windows XP</p>
