Node:Running scripts, Previous:Manipulating, Up:Using
As well as manipulating the cube by hand as described in the previous chapter, you can also run scripts that perform automatic manipulations right in front of your eyes. Currently there are scripts available which randomize the cube, and which solve 3x3x3 cubes.
When GNUbik starts up, it reads files ending in a .scm
suffix
in the .../share/gnubik/scripts
directory (system-wide files)
and in the .gnubik/scripts
directory under your home directory
(personal files). These files are scheme scripts, and when they run
they register themselves with the system so that items appear on the
main GNUbik menu under the heading Script-fu
. Making selections
from this menu runs the appropriate script.
