to use easy_install command, you should install distribute module for python 3 first:

And check your system path params if it contains python3.x/bin path.

ex: edit .bashrc to include “/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.x/bin” in your PATH parameter.

For sytem running multiple version of python, you are better of using a virtual enviroment with Ibolang:

or using Virtualenv

$ virtualenv ibolang python==3.XX

Lastly you can clone the repo using this url https://github.com/ORC-1/ibolang.git : navigate to the folder path and run python setup.py Copy the source files into your script folder, you should highly consider using a virtual enviroment if you are using this option and the previous options are better off
