[AWIPS #IUD-228100]: difficulty installing phython-awips course material

Hi Jim,

I'm not sure if you're responding in a separate color or not, but unfortunately 
our email 
client does not show us colors.  If you are going to respond in line, please 
use a new 
line and do not use ">" at the beginning, because it makes it difficult for us 
to see where
you're responding.

After reading your responses about python-awips:

I'm glad you're enjoying awips.  I'm still very confused about the process 
you're trying to do
to run python-awips though.  You should not need to run any apache client or 
server.
If you are able to install conda, you should then have access to an Anaconda 
Prompt terminal.
From within there, you can go to the directory where you did the git clone of 
our source code
(git clone https://github.com/Unidata/python-awips.git)
From there you should be able to run the following commands in the anaconda 
terminal:
cd python-awips
conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate python3-awips
python setup.py install --force
jupyter notebook examples

Note: the `conda env create` command can take a while to run.

Once you've activated the environment, you should be able to run the setup.py, 
which gives you
access to the python-awips code, and then running `jupyter notebook examples` 
will start up
the notebooks and open a browser.  It should stay running for as long as you 
have that terminal
open.

I'm sorry it has been so troublesome, but if you no longer wish to work on 
resolving the issue
right now, I understand.
Thanks.
