This will start a web server that listens on port\n8000 and provides the web API that ROBO Pro Coding expects to see. The\nserver will store downloaded programs in the local ```workspaces```\ndirectory and run the ```run.py``` script whenever an app is supposed\nto run. ```run.py``` and all other files are needed to execute\ndownloaded programs.\n\nIn order to access the SoftXT from RoboPro Coding enter ```\u003cyour linux\nip\u003e:8000``` as the IP address into the \"Controller verbinden\" dialog\nof ROBO Pro Coding. Replace \u003cyour linux ip\u003e with the IP address of the\nLinux PC running SofTXT displayed by ```txt-4.0.py``` as shown below:\n\n```\n$ ./txt-4.0.py\nStarting TXT-4.0 server on http://10.11.13.34:8000\n```\n\nYou can give anything for ```API-Schlüssel``` as this is not verified\nby SofTXT.\n\n![Connect](connect.png)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fharbaum%2Fsoftxt","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fharbaum%2Fsoftxt","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fharbaum%2Fsoftxt/lists"}
