some typos in the post, i dont know how to edit it. let me rephrase my question
I tested all the following codes in linux and windows. If in linux, I changed the separator to forward slash (/). In windows, I tested the codes with double blackslash “\\” and single blackslash “\” respectively . (For some reasons, I have to enter two blackslashes in order to show a single blackslash in this forum.)
import os
homepath = ‘home\user\Software\Slicer-5.2.2-linux-amd64’ # / if in linux
os.chdir(homepath)
(above 3 lines worked, no issues with them)
below all failed, even if I changed the separator for different operating systems
start Slicer home\\user\\project\\mice\\test.py
Slicer.exe --python-script “home\\user\\project\\mice\\test.py”
or
start Slicer home/user/project/mice/test.py
Slicer.exe --python-script “home/user/project/mice/test.py”
