* Navigate to the scripting folder
cd /home/ccd/development/shoc-scripting/
* Make a copy of the example script file
cp example_script.txt my_script.txt
* Open the newly created script file with nano (or which ever terminal editor you prefer) and edit the script sequence as you desire. The positions you have to enter for the desired filters can be checked on the filter-wheel webgui (click on the blue “More” text)
nano my_script.txt
* NB very import step: enter the "shocenv" python environment. If you do not do this you will get all sorts of python package import errors when trying to run the script routine
source /home/ccd/.pyenvs/shocenv/bin/activate
