Hello

In older tecplot versions, I could launch tecplot from command line using "tec360". But this seems to be missing in the latest versions.

I am on Mac OSX. How to launch from command line ?

Thanks

There is a work-around that should get you up and running. It involves creating an alias. On my Mac 10.9 machine I placed the following in a .profile file:

TEC=/Applications
tec360(){
$TEC/"Tecplot 360 EX 2015 R1"/"Tecplot 360 EX 2015 R1.app"/Contents/MacOS/"Tecplot 360 EX 2015 R1" "$@"
}
export -f tec360

Now whenever I call tec360 I can specify any of the command flags.

This does the job, thanks. I just set a sym link called "tec360" to the executable.
