        Installation instructions for PAScual
        =====================================
        
        
        Prerequisites
        -------------
        
        For running PAScual you need, at least:
        
        - Python >=2.7
        - Numpy >=1.0.3
        - scipy >=0.5.2
        - PyQt >=4.6
        - PythonQwt >=0.5.5 
        
        For getting graphical output in the text mode interface, you may want
        
        - matplotlib >= 0.90.1
        
        Except for PythonQwt, the rest of the packages should be available in the
        official repositories of any linux distribution that supports Python2.7.
        
        For PythonQwt, you may need to use [PyPI](pypi.python.org)
        
        ### TIP: using conda to install the pre-requisites
        
        You can create a [conda](https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/miniconda.html) environment with the required prerequisites with:
        
        `conda create -c conda-forge -n PAScual python=2 pythonqwt pyqt numpy scipy`
        
        
        
        Installing PAScual
        ------------------
        
        The simplest way is to use:
        
        ```
        pip install PAScual
        ```
        
        Alternatively, you can also download the tar.gz from PyPI, untar it into a
        temporary directory, change to it and run:
        
        ```
        python setup.py install
        ```
        
        Running PAScual
        ---------------
        
        Once installed, just run the following command to get the graphical application:
        
        ```
        pascual
        ```
        
        And I recommend to try the tutorial from the User Manual (some example spectra
        are provided in the examples dir)
