I want to run multiple shell scripts with os.system("")

Question

I want to run

os.system("sshpass -p xxxxxx ssh [e-mail].x.x source ./my.sh; rest")

My command work on the commandline without any problem but when I try to run it through os.system it gives an error saying rest is not found.

Rest is a shell function. So the running command on the command line is:

Sshpass -p xxxxxx [e-mail].x.x "source ./my.sh; rest"

See the double quotes on between source and reset fixes the issue on the commandline but I can't do two double quotes inside os.system
