Add Python 2.7 and virtualenv to instructions #10

Closed jseppi closed 7 years ago

jseppi commented 7 years ago

I mostly just wanted to specify somewhere that Python 2, not 3, was required for running this project. Adding that information to the Instructions sectioned seemed like the best place to put it.

Thanks @jseppi , good idea. I think the only issue between Python 2 and 3 is "print" in Python 2 versus "print()" in Python 3. Rather than ask users to download Python 2, I'll go ahead and add a "from future import print_function" so that it is version agnostic. Can also add some more specific virtualenv instructions.

That sounds good! I hadn't dug further into what might not be python3-compatible, so if it's just print, then 🎉!
