MAC Shell command

with versions <1.1.0 you have to use os.popen() or the features of the subprocess module.

with version 1.1.0, you can do this:

result = run("env")

getting result as a multi line string like this:
0
SHELL=/bin/bash
LC_CTYPE=UTF-8
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/Applications/NetBeans/NetBeans 7.4.app/Contents/Resources/NetBeans/webcommon/bin:
TMPDIR=/var/folders/72/r0r_pc952b97blkfdk5yh0hr0000gn/T/
JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_67.jdk/Contents/Home
SHLVL=1
…. more

the first line is the return code, the rest is the stuff going to stdout and lines after a line *****error***** the stuff that goes to stderr.

to run a script file created from scratch, just create a file wherever you want with the shebang in the first line and then the lines you need to be processed.

then issue
result = run("<the-path-to-your-commandfile> option1 option2")

--- crop an image
… also can be done with version 1.1.0 (not documented yet ;-)

img = Image.create("someFile.png")
imgCropped = img.getSub(x, y, w, h) # still in memory
imgCroppedFile = imgCropped.asFile() # a file in temp

… and this is possible:
find(imgCropped) # just use the in memory image

Sorry what do you mean by shebang in the first line

Dont think I will need it for Cropping then - not in a rush so I can wait for 1.1.0 to be released - think I saw it was planned for August sometime.
but usefull to understand how to use the run() command
