Gentoo Dropbox CLI

Trying to use the python script to manage my dropbox via the command line and when I try to run it I get the following

-> ~/bin/dropbox.py help     
  File "/home/jcostanzo/bin/dropbox.py", line 50
    INFO = u"Dropbox is the easiest way to share and store your files online. Want to learn more? Head to"
                                                                                                         ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Here is my python version

-> python --version
Python 3.2.3

What am I missing? Thanks

Solution

  • Looks like this script doesn't work in your version of Python.

    The u'unicode' syntax works in Python 2.x, and again in Python 3.3.
