[BioPython] os.system problem with clustalw

[Emanuel Hey]

I don't know if this is related to my previous problem
As before under windows XP

If I have clustalw.exe in the current directory then I
should be able to execute just using

>>>os.sytem('clustalw ' + 'data.faa')

Indeed this works fine

However if I give it the full path
>>> os.system('clustalw ' +
'C:\temp\pythonplay\hcgplay\data.faa')

or
>>> os.system('clustalw ' +
'C:\\temp\\pythonplay\\hcgplay\\data.faa')

then the clustalw run crashes and returns 

Error: unknown option
/-INFILE=C:\temp\pythonplay\hcgplay\data.faa

This is very annoying.  

Any clues?  Thanks
