setup scripts fails #3

Setup script fails with the following error:

error: file '/home/pi/zmq/easy_py_messaging-master/easy_py_messaging/bin/listening' does not exist

I apologize for this inconvenience. The "listening" utility is exactly listeningPort.py shortened.

This is my first offering to the community using setup.py and I find it to be very confusing and not at all helpful. I wish I could find a better or more helpful packaging to get "python setup.py install" to work more easily.

When I developed this, I worked in the easy_py_messaging/easy_py_messaging dirs. We have used this lib internally with success. I need to update github to reflect our development progress - this is a great time to straighten this out.

Still, there is no excuse for releasing this to github with an install that breaks so easily. Sorry does not cut it.

No worries, these things happen! I have noticed that the missing "listening" file was actually placed in this directory:

easy_py_messaging-master\easy_py_messaging

Once I moved it to:

easy_py_messaging-master\easy_py_messaging\bin

The setup script worked as intended. Not sure if this is a "fix" per se but I will leave it up to you to decide whether this issue can be closed.
