Re: [Bkchem-user] General suggestions on bkchem documentation on Mac

[Alexander Thurgood]

Hi Jerome,

Would your plan be to rewrite it for Python3, or leave it with Python2 ?

One of the first issues I encountered with trying to set it up from the 
command line using the v0.14 source and included setup.py, was the 
number of print statements that now require parentheses, for example.

After that, attempting to launch bkchem from the v0.14 unzipped source 
failed for me with a lack of a "_main_" module.

It seems to me from that limited foray, that quite a lot of work would 
be involved to switch over to Python3, but I'm not a programmer, so 
perhaps my guesstimate is completely wrong.
