standalone _python2.sh first line updated #119

Closed gauravssnl closed 8 years ago

gauravssnl commented 8 years ago

standalone_python2.sh updated to run Python easily on Terminal: As Android executes commands after searching from /system/bin directory and not from /bin directory ,the first line of standalone_python2.sh has to be changed from #! /bin/sh to as shown below:

! /system/bin/sh

After this is done and this new edited file is copied to /system/bin directory,then Python can be easily run on Terminal app with this command: standalone_python2.sh you can rename this script to whatever you desire and use that name as command. If you use previous version of standalone _python2.sh file and try to use command: standalone _python2.sh to run Python, you will get error as :No such file Earlier,you had to run Python on Terminal with command like this: sh /system/bin/standalone _python2.sh This command is longer and there are chances of mistake in typing. By using updated version,you can easily run Python now.

If you follow my method to run Python inTerminal,then there is no need of installing Sl4A and using it.Just rename that standlone_python2.sh (file permission:777) file in /system/bin to whatever you like ,for example,i rename it to "py",then you can easily use Python in Terminal with this commands: py To run any Python script: py filename.py Thanks.
