#2 PyRTF does not work with Python3.4.3

[Gary Willingham]

I down loaded the PyRTF package and attempted to run the example.py and other example files under Python 3.4.3 and immediately began having problems. I deduced that, with the lack of a Print("text") function, older methods of opening files and usage of the apply() function, that the code in the install package is vintage Python 2.4 or earlier. I was able to fix up some of the older statements but have been having a real problem with class inhertatance issues that pop up in using Papers and Colours. There seems to be a problem with the way objects pass properties.

I think that the PyRTF package needed to be updated to 3.4.3 because Python has changed a lot since 2004.

The code on sourceforge is from 2005. It moved from there to Google Code
(2009) and then to Launchpad (2010), where the latest changes were made.

It has since been cloned to this repo, but is no longer supported:
* https://github.com/oubiwann-unsupported/pyrtf

The old Launchpad project now also points to that repo.

I would encourage any interested developer to fork that repo, adding new
features as desired.
