Looking for tinypilot (computer) how to docs
#4
Pypilot runs either in the background or at the prompt. You cannot have it both at the same time. When it runs in the background, it runs 'as a service', and to run it at the prompt, you first have to stop the service. To stop the service, under raspbian you type 'sudo systemctl stop pypilot', under tinypilot you say 'sudo sv stop pypilot'. After you have done that, you can run pypilot at the prompt, by typing 'pypilot'. Capture the output any way you can, if even by videoing it with your phone, as a last resort, but I hope you know how to make screendumps or capture text output. That output is the key to effective help on this forum. Without that, everyone here is shooting ducks in the dark.

Don't give up, hey! Pypilot is worth all this. If my boat sinks, the first thing I rescue is my pypilot. I love the thing.

Read this over and over again https://github.com/pypilot/workbook/wiki...the-prompt. Those in the know are cursed with knowledge and it's hard to write for those who aren't. But the key to classical understanding of pypilot should be in there.
