How do you access the Erica Utilities after they are installed?

[r00t4rd3d]

They are all command line utilities so ssh.

thanks renegaderon, but that page only explains each app and not how to use them. I know nothing about using commands but I really want to use the "sendFileByMail" app in this package and I can't figure it out. Any help would be appreciated.

i too am having the same problem...i installed them through installer.app and then found that they were in /usr/local/bin however when i try to execute any of the commands. i get a prompt saying command not found. So then i jsut chmod +x * in the /usr/local/bin dir and still get the same error msg saying command not found

I, like many others, can find this useful. However, I, like many others, do not understand "how" to use Erica's utilities.

Can someone please provide a simple example? Thanks.

how to use snap:

1. go to the screen u want to take a snap of.
2. SSH into your iphone and type "snap" and then a name for your snapshot and then press enter. so for example i type "snap calculator" and it'll create a snapshot called calculator.png
3. now u need to use an SFTP client to login to ur iphone. a good one for macs is Cyberduck and for windows there's WinSCP.
4. navigate to /private/var/root within your SFTP client and there you will find your snapped file.

Ace, thanks for the tip. I found another trick:

"snap2album" as the command will place the image in your camera roll, too.

huhwha? still have no clue

The one I really want to use is "sendFileByMail" from what I gather, I can store files that I commonly email to clients (logos, price sheets, etc) and then use this to attach those files to an email. I wish they would just write this as an app like they did "SendSong". That app works great!

what you posted above for the snap program seems too cumbersome to be useful.

I do appreciate the help though

MrNoSox:
In mobileTerminal type the following:
cd /usr/local/bin/
./sendFileByMail /path/to/the/file/you/want/to/send.ext

That should open mail and attache the file for you.

Is there anyway we can make this a little simpler and run sendFileByMail from any directory? Instead of always having to first go to the /usr/local/bin directory ?

Is there a way to add new paths?

i just wanna know if you can use the utilities with mobile terminal, and if you can, what the hell are the command lines?
