I wanted to run a python module across a file and tried just double clicking the script, which thanks to Bob's build (I guess) would have worked fine if I had not used a .py file and had not had an arg. Anyway it showed me enough to accomplish what I wanted. I did not want to create a standalone because I edit it for different (usually one time) purposes and thus usually have only a .py file to start. So, after changing the first item to python (instead of pythonw) and including a third item for the arg, this worked: ============================= Welcome to Darwin! Chinook ~ 81 $"/usr/local/bin/python" "/Users/Chinook/PythonProjects/MyUtilities/ConvertFile.py" "/Users/Chinook/TestFiles/AtoB.txt" && echo Exit status: $? && exit 1 <process log output> Exit status: 0 logout [Process completed] ================================ So what's my problem? Well I know I could reduce the typing with some aliasing in my .profile file, but I'm wondering if there is not a simpler/direct way of accomplishing a basic task such as this? Thanks, Lee C |
