PyQ runtime issues

Community Support

Hello,

Has anyone ever experienced issues after building PyQ? Such as the following:

>>> q.show(_)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File “<stdin>”, line 1, in <module>
NameError: name ‘q’ is not defined

I have build PyQ from

python setup.py install

It seems starting normal until I call any Q command:

tom-desktop q # rlwrap l32/q python.q “$@”

Any guidance will be much appreciated.

It’s a random shot in the dark…but you ran “import q” first, right?

Hi Ryan,

You were right. Something was missing. The following import has helped:

from pyq import *

Thanks
