How can I run an .exe in the .tex file?
I'm writing a scientific proposal and I have a .exe Python script to copy, timestamp and put into a directory.
I want to use this .exe whenever I compile. From a logic point of view, this would be at the end of the main.tex, but before end{document}.
Is there a way I can have LaTeX run this .exe?
pdftex python

Welcome to TeX.SX! There are ways requiring shell-escape. We already have questions on that topic (search for call external program).

Search also about "knitr", it was done mainly to run R code in LateX but actually is also able to run python code (without any kind of external script) . See here for a basic example.
