To pip install the demo applications from PyPI, use this command\n\n#### If you use the command `python` on your computer to invoke Python (Windows):\n\n`python -m pip install --upgrade psgreddit`\n\n#### If you use the command `python3` on your computer to invoke Python (Linux, Mac):\n\n`python3 -m pip install --upgrade psgreddit`\n\n### Using PIP with GitHub\n\nYou can also pip install the PySimpleGUI Applications that are in the PySimpleGUI GitHub account.  The GitHub versions have bug fixes and new programs/features that have not yet been released to PyPI. To directly pip install from that repo:\n\n#### If you use the command `python` on your computer to invoke Python (Windows):\n\n```bash\npython -m pip install --upgrade https://github.com/PySimpleGUI/psgreddit/zipball/main\n```\n\n#### If you use the command `python3` on your computer to invoke Python (Linux, Mac):\n\n```bash\npython3 -m pip install --upgrade https://github.com/PySimpleGUI/psgreddit/zipball/main\n```\n\n\n\n\n## Usage\n\nOnce installed, launch psgreddit by typing the following in your command line:\n\n`psgreddit`\n\n## Requirements\n\nTo use the GUI you'll need to install PySimpleGUI (http://www.PySimpleGUI.org for instructions)\n\nOne of these will install it for you.\n```\npip install PySimpleGUI\npip3 install PySimpleGUI\n```\n\nYou will also need to install the PRAW package which provides the APIs for accessing Reddit\n\n## PRAW Credentials\n\nYou must signup with Reddit to in order to get own Reddit API credentials.\n\nTo sign up go to - https://www.reddit.com/prefs/apps/ \n\nFor security reasons, the credentials are not stored in the source code, but instead in a \"settings file\".  The User Settings APIs were added to PySimpleGUI in Nov 2020 and are perfect for storing login credentials.  \n    \nWhen you first start the program, it will figure out that you don't have any credentials defined and will show you this settings window:\n   \n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n\n\nYou can also use the \"Settings\" button in the main window to bring up the settings window.  \n\n## Search History\n\nThe items you search for are stored in the settings file as well.  This makes future searches easier as you can select the search term from a drop-down list instead of typing them in.\n\n\n## Running\n\nOnce the packages are installed, you only need to run the single Python file found in this repository - `Reddit_Searcher.py`\n\nWhen running on Windows, launching with `pythonw` instead of plain `python` will start the program without showing a console window.\n\n## License \u0026 Copyright\n\nCopyright 2023-2024 PySimpleSoft, Inc. and/or its licensors.\n\nThis is a free-to-use \"Utility\" and is licensed under the\nPySimpleGUI License Agreement, a copy of which is included in the\nlicense.txt file and also available at https://pysimplegui.com/eula.\n\nPlease see Section 1.2 of the license regarding the use of this Utility,\nand see https://pysimplegui.com/faq for any questions.\n\n\n## Contributing\n\nWe are happy to receive issues describing bug reports and feature\nrequests!
