Unable to run examples #10

Hi,

Just installed ncbi-acc-download using pip and trying to run a quick example to make sure it works however when I run this I get this error (This happens when I also just run ncbi-acc-download --help).

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/huw/anaconda2/bin/ncbi-acc-download", line 6, in from ncbi_acc_download.main import main File "/home/huw/anaconda2/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ncbi_acc_download/main.py", line 6, in from .core import download_to_file, generate_url, Config, HAVE_BIOPYTHON File "/home/huw/anaconda2/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ncbi_acc_download/core.py", line 24, in from ncbi_acc_download.download import ( File "/home/huw/anaconda2/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ncbi_acc_download/download.py", line 83 print("Failed to download {!r} from NCBI".format(params['id']), file=sys.stderr) ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I have installed ncbi-genome-download using the same method and have no problem with that where it runs for whatever I try. Does anyone know what might have happened here?

Thanks

Ah, my bad, I forgot to test this with Python 2.7. I'll have a fix for this soonish, but considering Python 2 will be retired in about 8 months (https://pythonclock.org/), maybe you want to run ncbi-acc-download in Python 3 instead?

Should be fixed in the 0.2.5 release.
