[Coco] Announcing pyDriveWire v0.2

[Bill Pierce]

Michael, under Windows, after installing "pypy" and running the first cmd "pypy get-pip.py", I get this:

File"<stdin>", Line 1
  pypy get-pip.py
      ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I have no knowledge of python, so I have no idea where to go from here.
Me thinks the instructions need more details :-)

Here are some more detailed instructions.  I will add them to the README after they have been verified.Ron: Please let me know if this gets you any farther along.Bill Pierce: These are the instructions that I used for my minimal testing on Windows.  Give it a shot and let me know how it goes.1. Install PyPy 2.7   Using your Linux Distro's package installer tool will be the most convenient way.  On Windows go to PyPy.org <http://pypy.org/> and download and install it.2. Install pip.  Download https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py <https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py> and run it: pypy get-pip.py3. Install pyserial: pypy -m pip install pyserial4.
