Editable installation

For development it is advisable to install IDTxl in editable mode. This can be
done by navigating into the IDTxl folder (where setup.py
is located) and
running
$ pip3 install -e . # install package using setup.py in editable mode
This will install IDTxl in 'editable' or development mode, which means pip creates a soft link in Python's site-packages to the current IDTxl location (see here for details). This way you can keep making changes in the package, which will be effective immediately, i.e., without the need to reinstall it after each change.
