Hellow, So I was able to use pipista to dowload nltk. Now I can see the nltk-2.0.4.tar.gz file in the directory. However, I am trying to use shellista to untar and ungzip this package, but pythonista always tells me the file cannot be found? Does anyone know a solution to this problem?
Thanks

Installing NLTK on pythonista
do you see the file when you do an ls? If not trying changing directories until you do.
By default packages downloaded with Pipista will land in the pypi-modules folder, so you'll first need to run cd pypi-modules and then the ungzip and untar commands.
It didnt land in the pypi-modules foldr. it landed in the scripts library. But I attempted moving it to the folder and it is still giving me the same error.
So it is now in the scripts folder? (i.e. when you cd scripts and ls, you can see it there). While in that directory you do gunzip nltk-2.0.4.tar.gz and you should be left with a .tar file which you can then do untar nltk-2.0.4.tar. What is the error msg?
No it is in the overall area. Not in a folder.
But how do u cd back to the overall directory?
'cd ..' (without the quotes) will take you up a level
