(very preliminary test)

Install

# Get anaconda or miniconda on your own, then:
> conda create --name st_test -c conda-forge python=2
 
# Do not activate the environment yet, do this first:
> conda install --name st_test -c conda-forge -c fermi_conda_forge numpy scipy ipython fermist
 
# Now you can activate
> source activate st_test

Using python scripts

Python modules are now under the "fermist" package, so in general an import like this:

import BinnedAnalysis

will fail. You should instead do:

from fermist import BinnedAnalysis

However, since this change would break all existing scripts, you can activate a "compatibility" mode by doing:

> fermist_compatibility_mode_on

This will put the `fermist` package in the `$PYTHONPATH` variable and it will allow you to import python modules as above. You can then deactivate it with:

> fermist_compatibility_mode_off

Known issues
