Nice! Fewer clearer more cross-platform install steps is always good. Installation worked for me on osx just now. I may have had some prerequisites installed from before, such as python3 from brew.
I thought I was done when bean-check ran, but just out of interest I ran bean-doctor from the next section and got a traceback showing that I still needed lxml. I confirmed that by re-reading your release notes and installed it with pip3 install lxml. The next traceback mentioned datetime, so pip3 install python-datetime. Finally bean-doctor showed a nice list of dependencies and their status. I had bottle from before, and upgraded it with pip3 install bottle --upgrade, and ply sounds useful so pip3 install ply. bean-doctor is nice, it helps reassure me that I won't be getting dependency-related tracebacks later while using the tool. Here are some ideas make it even better: - always show the dependency list instead of a traceback - include the new lxml dependency in the list - indicate which libs are required - for not-yet-installed libs, suggest the pip command to install them - maybe have each bean tool check for required dependencies at startup ?
