Mac Houdini Python Users June 8, 2023, 10:44 a.m.

Greetings Mac Houdini Users!

I have a strange request.
I am writing a book on Houdini Python and I need a couple of mac command line prompts. I don't have access to a Mac nor Mac Houdini so I am reaching out to you, stalwart users!

The first prompt I need is the output you get when running vanilla Python out of a fresh, command-line, terminal.
For example, when I execute Python from a windows shell I would get something like:
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19043.2006]
(c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
 
C:\Users\croda>python
Python 3.8.8 (default, Apr 13 2021, 15:08:03) [MSC v.1916 64 bit (AMD64)] :: Anaconda, Inc. on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> quit()
I need what this looks like on a Mac.


The next thing I need is what the installed version of Houdini Python looks like when executed from a Mac terminal.
(I am not looking for the hython execution, I need Houdini Python )
For example, when I execute Houdini installed Python from a windows shell, I get something like:
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19045.2965]
(c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
 
C:\Users\croda>"C:\Program Files\Side Effects Software\Houdini 19.5.493\python39\python"
Python 3.9.10 (1 file(s) copied., Sep 15 2022, 19:40:17) [MSC v.1929 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> quit()
I need what this looks like on a Mac.

If you can provide me with these prompts I am more than happy to provide you with credit in the book!

Thank you very much for your help!

These are great!

The download is a perfect alternative and the code snippet is perfect!

Thank you, alexyvanzhula1984!

Yes! Thank you for responding Jonathan!
I wish to execute Designer to generate a .ui file which I can use to drive an interface.
I typically use the the version installed with PyQt5. However, I am trying to answer the question, "If a user did not install PyQt5 or PySide2 separately on their machine, how could they use the version of Designer installed with Houdini Python?"

Thank you for your time!
