Suppose I am in ~/programming/ass1 and the executable is in ~/programming/ass1/seattle/seattle_repy/repy.py.

I tried to create a symlink like so

ln -s seattle/seattle_repy/repy.py repy

to be able to type

python repy restrictions.test example.1.1.repy

instead of

python seattle/seattle_repy/repy.py restrictions.test example.1.1.repy

But it didn’t work (I get “python: can’t open file ‘/home/philipp/Desktop/Uni/NTM/UE/Uebungsblatt 3/safe_check.py’: [Errno 2] No such file or directory”).
So repy.py can’t find safe_check.py.

Is this possible at all?

Cheers,
Philipp

    You’ll need to frob sys.path to add the path containing the modules, but it’s probably easier to make a shell script that calls exec python ~/programming/ass1/seattle/seattle_repy/repy.py.
