You can install KCG or run without intstallation

Install

To install KCG (either system- or userwide) use (inside the repository) pip install . with optionally --user as flag to install only for current user. To start KCG after installation simply run kcg from whereever you are.
Upon first run you will be prompted to configure KCG this will set appropriate values and write them to ~/.kcg/config.cfg

NOTE:

If you chose to install for current user only you need to have $HOME/.local/bin in your $PATH in order to run kcg.

Run without installation

You can run KCG directly without installation. To do so, simply run ./kcg in the outer KCG directory.

You will still be asked to configure KCG if it is the first run.
