Okay. When I try to run the script from the terminal, it still doesn't work.
Here is a screenshot.
What am I doing wrong?
1) You're top-posting. Put your responses after the quote you're responding to.
--Okay. I'm pretty new to this so most of my responses were just general
questions rather than specific responses.
2) You're trying to include graphical images in a text-based newsgroup. Just
use copy/paste, and include it in your message.
--Got it. I will do that from now on.
3) You don't tell us where the hello.py file actually is. Presumably it's not
in the current directory when you run that. Two cures for that: either
specify its real location,
python ~/mysources/hello.py
--This is the location of the file:
/jwbonnell/bin/Python 2.7/Extras/Demo/tkinter/guido/hello.py
but it still says it cannot find the directory when I try to run it or cd to
it. Is there any way that I can tell which directory the shell is currently
working from?
pwd will show your current directory on Linux. And it's usually showing
in your prompt.
As for cd not working, someone else has pointed out that in the shell,
you need to escape certain characters, the space being one. I try to
avoid ever having spaces in directory or file names.
or cd to the proper directory. The latter is usually easier, but it depends
where other files your script are located.
