Linuxisms

[kengle3]

I'm trying to get Pytomation functioning on my Mac for use with a University project, but am having a lot of issues trying to get the installation scripts to play nice.

I've noticed that at least install.sh uses Linuxisms (useradd). This prevents non-Linux users from installing by using the script. I attempted to get around this by manually creating the user and commenting out that portion of the script.

I now get two errors at the very end as a result.

Setting install location in pytomation.sh
Copying init script to /etc/init.d...
Making sure scripts are excutable...
chmod: /etc/init.d/pyto: Not a directory
Setting Pytomation to start from run level 2
ln: /etc/rc2.d/S99pyto: No such file or directory
Finished...

This is generated by a Mac running Mountain Lion.

Pytomation can run as a regular user, you don't actually need the
startup scripts. If you edit pytomation.sh you can run right from the
Pytomation folder.

If you do create startup scripts for the Mac, could you send it on to me
so I can update the repository with them.

Thanks
George

Any help getting Pytomation to run on non-Linux machines would be
appreciated.
