Title: windows like batch files on linux?
Post by: max in montreal on July 15, 2011, 05:06:43 AM
So I am still new to Linux. I have created a file using leafpad to run phoenix miner for me. I made it an executable, and it does run, but I do not see it, there is no terminal window, and I would like one to be there so I can see the progress...

What do I have to do to run it with the terminal window open?

Be sure to check "run in terminal" when creating the launcher icon

you can create a new file for example miner.sh
within that you type

/path/to/miner/minername.py -option -option

save that file.
mark the file as executable and doubleclick the file,
select run in terminal.

now everythings fine :).

How do you start your scripts?
What linux distrib do you have?
Do you run a GUI?

Yes I tried this, but the terminal does not open.

I am using Linuxcoin, latest version.
I created a text file in leafpad, made it an executable in the properties, and then double click on it.

Hmm, if you are using LinuxCoin with GUI, then you must open Terminal window to start miners...
I cannot imagine other ways of doing this :P

python ./phoenix.py -u http://maxinmontreal.122:pass@api.bitcoin.cz:8332/ -k phatk VECTORS BFI_INT
