Hi Murta, the doc is wrong. On my OSX-systems there is no symbolic link in those directories either. I assume you have installed Mathematica under /Applications? To make your script work, you only have to find where MathematicaScript is located. Open a terminal and do the following: find /Applications -name "MathematicaScript" This should return the path which you can replace in your script.m. Here the working script looks then like #!/Applications/Develop/Mathematica.app/Contents/MacOS/MathematicaScript-script Print /@ RandomVariate[MixtureDistribution[ {1,2}, {NormalDistribution[1,2/10], NormalDistribution[3,1/10]}], 10, WorkingPrecision -> 50] Cheers Patrick On Feb 14, 2012, at 12:40 PM, Murta wrote: > Hi All > I use Mathematica 8 Home edition and I'm testing running Script via > Shell in my MacOS. > I followed the tutorial, changed the permission using chmod a+x > script.m but it doesn't worked. > > the script is this (copy and paste the tutorial) > > ------------------------------------------------ > #!/usr/local/bin/MathematicaScript -script > > Print /@ RandomVariate[MixtureDistribution[ > {1,2}, > {NormalDistribution[1,2/10], > NormalDistribution[3,1/10]}], > 10, WorkingPrecision -> 50] > ------------------------------------------------ > I didn't find the MathematicaScript file that the tutorial says it's > in #!/usr/local/bin/MathematicaScript > maybe it could be de problem. > > my directory has: > > /usr/local/bin>ls > capinfos dvipdf flac mergecap pgpdisk pkill.pl text2pcap > twfind > dftest edit idl2wrs metaflac pgpwde randpkt tshark > wget > dumpcap editcap latex pdf2ps pgrep.pl rawshark twdiff > wireshark > > What I'm doing wrong? > tks in advance! > Murta >
