Of course no problems by my side.

I'm happy to hear that. I experimented a bit with AthenaCL. Obviously we
got different views about UI but AthenaCL is very interesting. I hope this
operation will also
enable accessing AthenaCL features from OMDE/pmask. I'm open to
suggestions to improve the interopeability of the two software and to fix
the bugs you'll find outin OMDE/pmask.

What version of Python is AthenaCL based on?

What version of OMDE/pmask are you using?

It seems to me that you are referring to an old version. This may be a
problem.
