+This library is available over pypi. So for most of the use-cases it should be sufficient to run
 
-On CLi you must run:

-# sudo python setup.py install

-On Linux, ensure you belongs to the proper group so you can have access to the printer.

-This can be done, by adding yourself to 'dialout' group, this might require to re-login

 TODO
 ****
 
-Introduction
+Open points and issues of the project are tracked in the GitHub issues.
-------------
+Some annotations still remain in the code and should be moved over time
-
+into the issue tracker.
-python-escpos is the initial idea, from here we can start to build a
-robust library to get most of the ESC/POS printers working with this
-library.
-
-Eventually, this library must be able to cover almost all the defined
-models detailed in the ESC/POS Command Specification Manual.
-
-Details
--------
-
-What things are planned to work on?
-
-Testing
-~~~~~~~
-
-* Test on many printers as possible (USB, Serial, Network)
-* automate testing
-
-Design
-~~~~~~
-
-* Add all those sequences which are not common, but part of the ESC/POS
-  Command Specifications.
-
-  *  Port to Python 3
-  *  Windows compatibility (hidapi instead libusb?)
-  *  PDF417 support
-
-* use something similar to the `capabilities` in escpos-php
