How to get started using this?

Opened this issue · 0 comments

Hey, thanks a lot for putting this together, it looks super cool.

I've cloned the repo, and tried a few things:

  • make (built a jar file but I don't know what to do next)
  • ./setup.py - I get "permission denied"
  • python setup.py - gives me the following output:
/Users/samjewell/fana/language_grammars/promformat/promformat/.env/lib/python3.11/site-packages/setuptools/__init__.py:84: _DeprecatedInstaller: setuptools.installer and fetch_build_eggs are deprecated.

EDIT:
I've made further progress:

I've now run python setup.py build and python setup.py install - I think I'm getting something. I think a TINY bit more in the project readme would have helped me get here faster though 🙏
