Make it a bit clearer on how to install especially on Linux
Describe that flow rate should be adjusted.

Hi @wernight - I like some of the changes you suggested, but I am worried about others. The Mac/Windows Examples: Suggesting ~/ is nice, because will work with whatever user they have. 👍 But I don't want to encourage people to have the script in their "Download" folder, where they can later empty without realizing. That's why I created hypothetical examples, it's to make people decide "where they should save their script"... Does it make sense? Right now I am finishing an error_log to help people on reporting problems, if they happen. Tomorrow I'll have a look again on your suggestions for the README. |

Hi all!
... and I don't understand the complicated path to python3 - it should already be installed on all Main-Linuxes in the same place. ... just my 2 cents ... |

Downloads folder makes it easy to get started. Some users then may put it in ~/opt/ or other locations. Maybe next to their slicer. There is no standard for such scripts. I also think most Linux users would understand and adapt. |

Make it a bit clearer on how to install especially on Linux, and hints at flow rate adjustment.
