Noob question

Post by cschacal »

Hi, I'm trying to use Filebot CLi in OSX but I'm not able to make it work! I've read the following in the FAQ:

Q: I'm trying to run FileBot from the console on OSX but it just says: filebot: command not found
A: Your console can't find the "filebot" executable. Just add it to the PATH via: ./Applications/Filebot.app/Contents/MacOS/install.sh

Could you explain this for people that doesn't know anything about unix systems? can I do this without being root?

Thanks

You can use the absolute path to the filebot.sh shell script as well if u can't manage to link it into /bin. Learn how to use the console first.

Code: Select all

/Applications/FileBot.app/Contents/MacOS/filebot <args>
