1. I am using raspberry pi 2 board with raspbian loaded.
2. I have made python program which have multiple files.
Like I have adc.py which calls spi library for RPi.
3. Then time library is used to call functions like time.sleep() & Some of my own files.
4. Now I want to create a desktop laucnher for that app. So that it appear on desktop & on double click it runs.
5. I have made below code by commandline but it don't work. How to do this.
6. I think problem is I have written only main.py in below code, but in actual code I have 8 .py files.

Do you have to make the *.py file executable? chmod +x?

 

yes I had made that.
I had solved the problem by first creating bash file & then same process followed. It worked

 

I don't know what I'm talking about because I've never used RPI (though I have one, and want to) or Linux (though I want to), but maybe I can still be of help.
Have a look at this. Specifically, this:

Python project scripts
If you’ve made a cool game or project in Python that you want to show off, then you’ll need to make sure your Python script (ending in .py) also contains the all-important shebang. Open your Python script in your favourite text editor and add the following as the very first line:

#!/usr/bin/env python

Now just save the file as usual, exit and away you go!

 

I also learned that in order for a Python script to be executable in Linux, it must have Unix line endings. (See my thread on the Fedora forum.)

@strantor: What a pity that you have an RPi but don't use it!

I also have an RPI I do not use, but then again, I have three that I use.
