You don't say exactly what error you're getting
Jotache: I’m not getting any error, just the usage message.
If the book-file you want to remove DRM from were "book1.prc" and the book-file you want to create were "book2.prc" and your PID were "FUZZY$BUNNY"
Jotache: Yes, that is correct (except of course for the PID example).
then the command you should type is: mobidedrm book1.prc book2.prc "FUZZY$BUNNY"
Jotache: I have tried all variants of this except that I include the extension .py as part of mobidedrm which then reads mobidrm.py
If I remove the extension from the script name and don’t put the extension in the command I get the usual error message ‘not a command or batch file etc. etc.’
at the very least you should not have the text "mymobipid" in your command.
Originally I didn’t have it, but inserted it when I read the message from pdurrant that I quoted in my message.
Keeping the quote marks (") around the PID.
Jotache: I tried with and without the quote marks and neither works. BTW I am typing the whole command directly in the command window and not copying or pasting anything or running a batch file. Once I get it to work I’ll probably write a small batch file, but I have to get there first.
If you've named the script something like mobidedrm.py instead of just mobidedrm, then you should type that instead
Jotache: Indeed. My command(s) reflect the file name of the script: in one case mobidedrm.py and in another case (a separate command run independently of the other) mobidedrm002.py – I did it this way so I can have both scripts in the same directory / folder. Tha ‘usage’ message tells me which version of the script I have run.
-- whatever you were doing before that actually ran the command albeit unsuccessfully.
Noted. Many thanks for your help.
