[thoma...@neuro.fchampalimaud.org]

New versions of pyControl and pyPhotometry are avaiable to download from their releases pages (here and here).  The main change in both releases is that when the GUI is run there is no longer a python terminal windows opened in addition to the GUI window, and the GUI window has a distinctive icon in the taskbar rather than the generic python icon.  Full release notes below.
