command line – How to `import FreeCAD` in CLI (python)
How can I import FreeCAD
from the python console?
I’m trying to write a script that can manipulate a given FreeCAD file, but I can’t even get FreeCAD imported into the python console on a system where FreeCAD is installed.
user@disp7637:~$ sudo dpkg -l | grep -i freecad
