Hello @svan ,

Cool beans!
I certainly learned a lot dissecting this material. :)

I tried this and was successful and sharing some tips below.

Windows 10 or 11 Users

You can get the file paths in a command prompt with where command:

C:\Users\GLV>where python
C:\Users\GLV\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python313\python.exe

C:\Users\GLV>where py5-run-sketch.exe C:\Users\GLV\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python313\Scripts\py5-run-sketch.exe

You can’t cut and paste above into your Java code!
You MUST choose one these options:

  1. replace the \ with a /
  2. replace the \ with a \\

Reference to explain the above:
Missing semicolon error when there really is one - #4 by glv

I created strings at the top of code for my file paths to use later in the source code provided:

String sMod = "C:/Users/GLV/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python313/python.exe";
String sImp = "C:/Users/GLV/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python313/Scripts/py5-run-sketch.exe";
String sFolder = "D:/Users/py5_code";

This is also in the responses to one of your links and much simpler:

You might also try dragging the .jar files directly onto the Processing editor.
