Hi Chris,
Thanks for your prompt reply, the problem has been solved!
I was using the 'python' terminal not the 'DOS' terminal.
I have created a new directory to hold the *.py scripts.
As I type with only two fingers I want to keep everything as short as
possible.
Is there a way to avoid the full path when running a script.
Thanks again, you have revived my interest in Python.
Regards,
Erol Gericke
Please paste the full error message, and your complete source code.
Also, make sure you are running the commands in the regular command
prompt window, and not in a Python-specific one.
Also, your scripts should not live in C:\Python27, because they might
conflict with other things.
You can open command prompt in the directory of your scripts [0] or
put them in a directory that doesn’t require a lot of typing (C:\py
for example).
PS. it’s not the “DOS” terminal, it’s the command prompt (cmd.exe).
DOS is not part of Windows NT/2000/XP and better, and rightfully so.
[0]: In Windows 8?/10, available from the File menu. Otherwise:
