I was told to ask here: I have no idea what to input into the terminal after, no I don't know linux at all. I'm just trying to get python working on my chromebook. tylonsecret@penguin:~$` python3 python_appimage-1.2.1-py2.py3-none-any/python_appimage/main.py usage: python-appimage [-h] [-q] [-v] {install,build,which} ...

Hello @T897T ,

I never tried Python AppImages on a chromebook. If this is an x86_64 Linux, then you could follow the basic installation documentation and see if it works? That is, in a term run

wget https://github.com/niess/python-appimage/releases/download/python3.11/python3.11.0-cp311-cp311-manylinux2014_x86_64.AppImage

chmod +x python3.11.0-cp311-cp311-manylinux2014_x86_64.AppImage

./python3.11.0-cp311-cp311-manylinux2014_x86_64.AppImage

the last command line should run the Python AppImage.

(P.S.: you are trying to run the python-appimage utility instead, which is meant for building Python AppImages and Python based app. But ready to use Python AppImages are already available for download).
