Instalation

To install this package, run

pip install slmcontrol

on a terminal.

It will work of the box for Windows. That is also the expected behavior for MacOS, but it has not been tested. For Linux, you will need to manually install wxPython before using this package.

If you encounter the error libSDL2-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory, you need to install the package libsdl2-2.0-0 (on Ubuntu, run sudo apt install libsdl2-dev).

If you encounter any problems, please open an issue on GitHub.
