    You can read data piped into a Python script by reading sys.stdin. For example:

    ls -al | python -c 'import sys; print sys.stdin.readlines()' 

    It is not entirely clear what you want to do (maybe I am stupid). The confusion comes from your example which is piping data out of a python script.
