Won't build ...

[BacchusFLT]

The docs don't say you need to download to a folder. Might be evident but might still not harm to mention.

Also, the "pip install -r requirements.txt" command failed with the following error message:

[CUT the above and only added from where it went south]

Can you try it in a virtual environment? https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv-virtualenv (python 3.10)

I am no python expert, but on my windows 11 system I had to remove the versions specified in requirements.txt from Pillow and zstandard, as the listed version would not build for me either.
(I'm hoping there isn't much of an issue in the latest versions of those packages.)

I also had to install setuptools to get the script to run.

Okay, so now everything works fine? :)

[Rustbeard86]

Yea, seems to be. Fixed up some minor issues with character escaping and appears to be good to go. Appended about 8 strings with 'r'. Sent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone Get Outlook for Android<https://aka.ms/AAb9ysg>
