You can either download the Python source code (from www.python.org) and compile it yourself or you download the file python2.1_macosx.tgz from http://tony.lownds.com/macosx/. If you download the pre-built binary, make sure to follow the install instructions before trying to run FinishInstall.py

The command prompt is a text based application that provides direct interaction with the Unix system. It is similar in context to MSDOS or the Command Prompt window you can bring up on Windows systems. A listing of basic commands with documentation is available at http://www.math.duke.edu/computing/intro.html#BASIC. In general, most things can be done through the graphical user interface. But sometimes we will ask you, or it may be quicker and easier, to use the command prompt.

Right-click the title bar of an open command window and click Properties. Set the colors, font, window size, etc. When you Save, you'll be asked whether it applies only to this window or all windows opened using the same shortcut.

Some commands expect more input from the keyboard, but don't necessarily provide prompts to the user. You can type <Ctrl>-D to send an end of file, which will normally end the program, or if that does not work, type <Ctrl>-C which will abort the program. You probably inadvertently typed <Ctrl>-Z, which is the Unix signal to put a program in "background". Type fg to bring the program into the foreground, and continue.

Simpliest way: kill -9 'cat pid.Botname' Note the use of backquotes. Change the "Botname" to the name of your bot. If this do not work, telling you "no such process", go ahead: Use the 'ps' utility to find running processes. The syntax differs from Unix to Unix, you can try these, until you find one that works: ps -axu | grep yourusername ps -Af | grep yourusername ps -ef | grep yourusername This will show all your processes that are running. Find your eggdrop and locate the process number.

You typically print to a parallel-port printer by copying a file to the lpt1: device. Because USB devices don't connect through an LPT device, you can't take the same approach to print to a USB printer from the command prompt. However, you have several options that will work. If a network adapter is connected to your network, you can share the printer with another machine on the network and map the printer to LPT2 or LPT3. For example, shares the printer on LPT2.

The PROCESS service has a SHELL parameter which specifies that COMMAND should be executed as though you were at a shell prompt. This allows complex commands involving pipelines to be readily executed. Note, if COMMAND and PARMS are both specified they will be concatenated with a space between them, and the resulting string is what will be executed. Unix Command Line Example: STAF local PROCESS START SHELL COMMAND "ps | grep test | wc >testcount.txt"

You can place a literal newline in quotes, i.e. PROMPT="Hi Joe, what now?%# " If you have the bad taste to set the option cshjunkiequotes, which inhibits such behaviour, you will have to bracket this with unsetopt cshjunkiequotes and setopt cshjunkiequotes, or put it in your .zshrc before the option is set. In recent versions of zsh (not 3.0), there is a form of quoting which interprets print sequences like '\n' but otherwise acts like single quotes: surround the string with $'...'.

When you evaluate an expression in the interpreter, it has to use some symbol table for looking up the ids you use. What symbol table does it use? The only credible alternatives are: The symbol table of the "current module" Hugs uses the latter (which seems more useful) but you might reasonably expect Hugs to use the export list and wonder why Hugs doesn't seem to implement abstract data types correctly when you do experiments from the command line.

There appears to be a bug in the script command which can be ignored by simplifying the prompt as follows (assuming you are the root user your prompt will end with #). cat file-generated-by-script | sed 's/.*#/ADIOS #/' > new-script-file

The env script in Windows has an extra option at the bottom called USE_JAVAW. If you "uncomment" this line by removing the "rem" statement, the javaw.exe program will be used to launch the SIB Explorer. This means that the script will return immediately, leaving the SIB Explorer still running. This action can be useful if you wish to run the SIB Explorer directly from, for example, a Windows shortcut and don't want a command prompt also running. Before the sibexplorer.

Yes. You can use the command line parameter -console to run JBlitz 'in the background' without any GUI When you use this parameter, you need to have setup your test configuration already so that the tests can be run without any user intervention. By default, JBlitz will run the last configuration that was being used when it is run with the -console command line parameter. You can also specify which test configuration to use by specifying the test configuration on the command line too.

Yes. Sepialine tracks activity sent via DOS or command prompts, including custom Autospool functions. Yes, Sepialine tracks batch plotting without any additional software and without altering your batch plot process.

Close down any open command prompt windows. You can do this by typing "exit" and pressing enter, or clicking the [X] at the top right of the window. Click on the following link and choose "Open" or "Run" to turn on tab auto-completion in your roaming profile's registry: http://studenthelp.itee.uq.edu.au/faq/cmd_autocomplete.reg Now you can use the tab key in the command prompt to auto-complete files and directories. Just start typing the name of the directory (ie: "C:\Docu") and press tab.

To change directories simply type "cd [DESTINATION DIRECTORY]" where the destination directory is the name of the directory you wish to navigate to

To create a directory in a command prompt/DOS window you will first need to open a DOS window (described above). Once you have done this you need to navigate to the directory that you wish to place the new directory in (described above). Once you have gotten this far you simply type the following "md [NEW DIRECTORY NAME]" where you specify the name of the directory you would like to create by replacing the "[NEW DIRECTORY NAME]" in the preceding string with the name you want.

XP, Windows 2000, and Windows NT don't contain DOS, although XP can create DOS-bootable disks. All three OSs support the cmd.exe command shell, which lets you run NT-equivalent DOS commands. In XP, go to Start, Programs, Accessories or click Start, Run, then type to start the command shell. For earlier application support, you might want to try the command.com shell, which is more compatible with MS-DOS than cmd.exe is. In XP, click Start, Run, then type to start the command.com shell. Command.

You need to use the command remvar to remove the defined functions or variables. > int var = 90 > remvar var > float var = 5.0 // now you can redefine 'var' If a defined function such as blah() is called at the command prompt, you need to remove the definition from the ch command shell with remvar, before modifying the function definition. Otherwise, the modified function definition won't work at the current command prompt. Here is an example as demonstrated below. > blah() > vi blah.

To get it to work via the BOOTCE command prompt just change the following registry setting using the Remote Registry Editor utility (Under the "Tools" menu option) as follows... You can alter system settings between program & storage memory by calling SetSystemMemoryDivision, and passing the number of 4K storage memory pages required. An example application is available here.

This behavior is due to the tty driver under A/UX. The BSD tty driver (which A/UX doesn't use) handles this, whereas the SysV driver doesn't. If you are running 'ksh' then you can "set -o viraw" to prevent this from happening. There are no known work-arounds for 'sh' or 'csh'. ('tcsh' and 'bash' do not suffer from this problem... )
