Hi All
To run the python 2 version of chirp I would download the .tar.gz
file and extract it to a directory.
I would then open a terminal window in that directory. Then run Chirp with
the following command
Python Chirpw.py
I am trying to run the python 3 version of chirp using the same method.
My first problem is there is not any chirps.py file to run so I have no
idea which file is the one I should run.
My question is how do I run the latest version of chirp running the source
code?
Thank you all for your time in reading this email.
Best regards
John

<pre>Have you looked at the "Running CHIRP on Linux" wiki page? I believe
it will answer some of your questions.

You install and run it differently since chirp-next is actually a python3
build.
I installed python3-pip, then as my user I installed chirp-next as my
regular user using pip.
Will need to check my notes and verify the steps on a new clean install of
Fedora 37 and Chirp-next. (you did not note the OS you are running, but I
assume it is linux.)
However, if you install it with pip as a regular user it is installed under
/home/USER/.local/ and the executable is ~/.local/bin/chirp.
You will need to install (using pip) the wheel and wxpython and attrdict3
packages, but I don't remember what all else is required. This is why I
need to repeat the clean install and verify my notes.
It runs in a venv if installed in that manner so nothing else is needed to
run it. Check your $PATH and if it includes ~/.local/bin then the command
'chirp' is all that will be required.
