Subject: [Tutor] finalizing code
Hello! I recently started programming in python (I use IDLE with python 2.7 on
ubuntu 11.04, by the way) and recently made a program (no interface) that
launches other programs. The problem I'm having is that when I gave my friend
the code, he had to get an editor to use the code. How do I make it so that
when you open the program, it starts the code (so anyone can use it, not just
those who have idle and know ow to program python)? Sorry if this is unclear. I
basically want to make a stand- alone command line application (or one that
boots in terminal). It's very basic and runs like so (except longer and
slightly more complex):
loop = 1
while loop == 1:
choice = raw_input(">")
if choice == "prog1":
print "Launching Prog1"
os.system("prog1")
loop = 0
else:
print "invalid program. Try again."
God Bless,
Ben Schwabe
=================================================================
If it is just in the module directly, you can probably just say 'python file.py'
It is usually recommended to stick everything into different functions then at
the end say
If __name__=="__main__":
function()
