+# python-tool
+
+## Description
+
+An interactive setup script for creating new python packages.
+
+## Usage
+
+`./new_python_tool.sh <name_of_tool>`
+
+## Installation
+
+1. Download the raw setup script (`wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Cronocide/python-tool/master/new_python_tool.sh`)
+2. Mark the script executable (`chmod +x new_python_tool.sh`)
+3. Run the script to make a new package (`./new_python_tool.sh <name_of_tool>`)
+
+## Configuration
+
+No configuration needed.
+
+## Justification
+
+I frequently create new python projects and cannot remember how each kind of package is configured. This script serves as a shortcut to create new projects.
