Hi @victorlei , thanks for making smop!

I came across the github page first, which displays the README.rst and it took me quite a while to figure out how to actually run smop.

I then realized that, besides README.rst, there is also another README with slightly different content (also written in RST as far as I can tell). I'd be happy to prepare a PR that

let me know

You may be interested in this fork of smop: https://github.com/PatrickFURI/smop https://github.com/PatrickFURI/smop Its a bit fragile, but when it works it produces a nice result (based on 4 trials) Regards Rob

The easy_install instructions don't mention that a smop executable is added to the path (which actually worked perfectly fine when I realized this). the "use without installation" instructions via python main.py ... don't work for me (even after installation via pip) due to import errors (see #123 https://github.com/victorlei/smop/issues/123) I then realized that, besides README.rst, there is also another README with slightly different content (also written in RST as far as I can tell). I'd be happy to prepare a PR that

merges the two README files makes sure to mention early on the various installation options (pip install smop, clone + python setup.py), including how to run smop adds the README to the page on PyPI https://pypi.org/project/smop/ (will happen at next release) let me know

Hello @ltalirz would you be able to share how to run or maybe install this correctly ? So far I also encounter same problem as you stated on use without installation. And installing through pip3 also result in deadend, I mean it says successfully installed yet when I use smop --version it cannot find it. I also tried @RobBW suggestion but it has lots of error when I try to convert

@RichardoTiono I believe the smop executable obtained via pip install smop worked fine for me to translate a simple matlab program. Of course, I guess smop is not perfect, so in more complicated cases it may fail.
