Executing GATE scripts using Python

[ZacharyEBirch]

Hello,

Excuse my possible ignorance, but I am trying to automate running Gate instruction files using a Python script. For some reason I am unable to, whether I am using os to run Gate in the Python terminal or subprocess to run it in xterm.

I have no issues running the program manually in the shell. I am using WSL for both Gate and the Python shell path.

If I run it using the alias, I get this error: sh: 1: Gate: not found

If I run it with the full path, I get this error: error while loading shared libraries: libG4Tree.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

If you want to use python to run Gate, then why not use gate 10 instead. It is already using python for everything. Watch https://github.com/OpenGATE/opengate

I am working with the xraylib in Gate9, which does not appear to be currently available in Gate10 unfortunately.

Then just leave a feature request there ;)
