When I run Meld from Finder it works fine, but when I run it from the command line:

$ /Applications/Programming/Meld.app/Contents/Resources/meld env: python2: No such file or directory

Do I need to install Python 2? Consider updating the documentation to say so. Thanks.

This is on macOS 10.12.4

I'm on macOS 10.12.6, meld Version 3.16.0 I had the same issue. I tried adding a symbolic link like sudo ln -s python python2 in /usr/bin (I only have system python installed), but then I read the thread in #20, the command is actually /Applications/Meld.app/Contents/MacOS/Meld and adding the alias works for me.
