This year the Suzanne award will also be given to the best script.
This is how it will be:
At this thread you all can tell us which are your favorite scripts until this Friday, October 15th;
The bpython dev team plus some Blender coders related to scripting will appoint a jury to choose up to 5 nominees among the names suggested here;
During the conference the participants can vote for best script among the chosen nominees.
Since this is the first year this happens, older scripts are also eligible. The only requirement is that the script is still actively developed – that it works with Blender 2.3x.
You should post this on “Blender general” or on “news and chat”.[/quote]
I think the idea is to try to limit it to people who uses the script. By posting in News & Chat, I think many would post the scripts they “think” is the best without even trying them.

I think that people who uses scripts are not necessarily every day on the script forum.

# script to call Blender from eric3 on the current active file
import os
# get current active file
currentFile = ViewManager.getActiveName()
if currentFile is not None:
# go to the Blender directory
blenderDir = '/opt/blender-2.34/'
os.chdir(blenderDir)
# change PYTHONPATH to include current directory
pythonPath = os.environ.get('PYTHONPATH')
if pythonPath:
pythonPath += ":"
else:
pythonPath = ''
pythonPath += os.path.dirname(currentFile)
os.environ['PYTHONPATH'] = pythonPath
# spawn Blender in seperate process
os.spawnle(os.P_NOWAIT, blenderDir+'blender', blenderDir+'blender', '-w', '-P', currentFile, os.environ)
else:
print "Error: No file selected!"
I often call it at night and during weekends through a single click on a taskbar icon. What pleases me most is that I can separate classes into packages since it takes care of the python path.
