Help request, running terminal commands from Qlab.

[Daniel Richert]

Hi Masters of Qlab.

I would like to learn how to launch terminal commands from Qlab script.

I would like to do two terminal commands in series first to go to the directory Applications, and then trigger a color on Blink1 (external usb led)

cd /Applications (enter)

then

./blink1-tool -m 100 --rgb=255,0,255

Thank you so much

You don't need Terminal, nor do you need to switch directories. Just run the following script in a Script cue in QLab:

 

do shell script "/Applications/blink1-tool -m 100 --rgb=255,0,255"

Without a blink1, I can't test this, but I believe that's all you'll need.
