To install, can you use ‘python3 setup.py install’?

 

Cheers,

Thanks, Peter.  sudo python3 setup.py install from the Mnemosyne-2.6 folder worked. I also changed the permissions of setup.py to execute, but don't know if that was necessary but it worked. 

I spent half a day yesterday not doing it correctly.  With your help, it took five minutes.
