Hi Andreas,
I have resolved all the issues listed in your mail. Still, if possible I
would prefer to have a week more time to clean up console messages to be
more clear and less confusing.

Please find my answers to your comments one by one:

 0. fixed, I attach version number to each zip file when building (the
current version is 1.15.1)

  1. I have attached Apache License 2 in LICENSE file.

  2. Indeed I've searched "print " and found some results which  resolved.
I've tested it on Python3.

  3. indeed, this was ugly, I've moved all external tools configuration to
a separate config_tools.txt, and change accordingly to your proposal

  4. I've improved the information on what happens when no parameters are
provided to the program. The error you were getting was caused because the
default action "-a" parameter to set to a method which assumed some
preprocessing. Now, I require the parameter to be explicitly set in console.

Best regards,
Michal
