Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] GNU Radio Companion isn't aware of custom pythonpath(s)

[Arturo Rinaldi]

i was thinking about it but i can't find the right argument to pass to the config file. I looked up on the internet and there's no proper way to do in a simple thing as :

[path]

mypath=path1:path2

so i decided to make my own script

!# /bin/bash

export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:<my-custom-path> \

gnuradio-companion

and link it to the .desktop file in my app menu in KDE. Gnuradio documentation lacks this information, so i really don't know where to search for.

Perhaps something to add to the [grc] section of ~/.gnuradio/config.conf?
