#42 Doesn't work with Python 3.8+

[zootus]

There is a problem with python 3.8+ i guess:

$ lsb_release -d
Description:    Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS

$ python --version
Python 3.8.10

[PySolFC-3000]$ make
python setup.py install
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 27, in <module>
    for s in file('MANIFEST.in'):
NameError: name 'file' is not defined

[PySolFC-3000]$ python pysol.py

    print 'PySol debugging: set CHECK_GAMES to True'
          ^
SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print'. Did you mean print('PySol debugging: set CHECK_GAMES to True')?

Looking at this error, it looks like you're trying to run from the code in SourceForge, correct?

If so, the SourceForge code is a bit out of date, and from before when Python 3 support was added. Since then, the latest code has been moved to GitHub and can be found at https://github.com/shlomif/PySolFC.
