Simple Path Question

So this path produces an error:

Code: Select all

subprocess.call(['/Library/Application\ Support/Perceptive\ Automation/Scripts/Shell/LinnJ.sh']),

but this one works:

Code: Select all

subprocess.call(['/Users/kitchen/Desktop/LinnJ.sh']),

Basically, I have a copy of the file in both places, and I'm dropping it into Terminal to get the path, but the first gives me an error. Could this be a permission thing? I've given Indigo and the Indigo Server Full Disc Access....

Open the Interactive Shell (bottom of plugins menu) and paste in the shell script there. You should get a much more informative error message.

My guess is that you need to remove the escapes in the path name, but that's only a guess (done in the Indigo Scripting Shell as Joe suggested)..

Code: Select all
