FAQ

Is Spectrum-Qt related to py_spec?
- Spectrum-Qt uses py_spec for a part of the process, but it can be replaced with any other script that does the same thing.

Troubleshooting

If you run into some problems before opening an issue make sure it's not a py_spec problem. If so, check that the error hasn't already been reported in the Original Repository
