Is the AtariEnvironmentWrapper not being used? #19

Hi, Is this function being used anywhere?

Thanks for your interest, indeed AtariEnvironmentWrapper is not used anywhere. It was originally used during development of these agents to make it easier to compare having the Atari preprocessing in the environment versus in the agent itself. We eventually went with having the preprocessing in the agent for a number of reasons, but since it is more common to have the preprocessing in the environment, AtariEnvironmentWrapper was kept for the convenience of users.

I see. Thanks for your reply, John :)
