Bc2000 (for the BCF2000 & BCR2000)

how do you launch it, and what is the exact error message please?

you have to set execute permissions on the file to launch it directly,  
but starting it with
$ python bcrtool.py
should always work.

to set execute permissions do
$ chmod +x bcrtool.py

if neither works then maybe you have a problem with your python  
installation -
check it with e.g.
$ python --version
(mine is Python 2.5.1)
$ which python
(/usr/bin/python)

hth,

/m
