      I'm on a RPi3 running Retropie 4.2. I installed the sselph scraper via the additional packages in the Retropie setup, but I want to scrape via command line since you can pass additional parameters to it which don't seem to be available in the Retropie setup screen (for example, -mame_img="s"). However when I try to do this I get $ -bash: scraper: command not found. I know I have it installed since I can scrape through the setup. Any ideas?

        It should've installed to /opt/retropie/supplementary/scraper/scraper

          Yep it's there, I see the directory and the file, but some some reason it will not recognize the $ scraper command.

            @sselph Sorry, the problem was my own ineptitude. I was typing "/opt/retropie/supplementary/scraper" when running it, I missed a directory in there. Problem resolved. Thanks for the response!
