appy.pod Command-line programs

Appy contains several utility programs lying in appy/bin. This section describes some of these programs. Note that, when Appy is installed, these programs are not automatically made available in the path, nor in /usr/bin, etc.

If, for example, Appy has been installed in

/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/appy

if you want to launch program ogrep.py, you must run:

python3 /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/appy/bin/ogrep.py

Every such program has option -h, allowing to output its documentation.

python3 /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/appy/bin/ogrep.py -h

Every program has header:

#!/usr/bin/python3

If it corresponds to the desired version of your Python interpreter, you may omit launching the python3 executable:

/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/appy/bin/ogrep.py -h
