Install Jupyter notebook in Linux (and OSX)

install_jupyter_notebook_linux.txt

1. Create a Python environment. For example (in the command line interpreter):

    python3 -m venv intercom_env
    
   (obviously, you can re-use a old one, and you can skip this step).
    
2. Activate the environment. Run (tabulator key helps):

    intercom_env/bin//activate
    
and the prompt of the shell interpreter should change to:

    (intercom_env) ...
    
to deactivate the environment (do not do this now!), exit from the command line interpreter or run:

    deactivate
    
Remember that to use Python and the packages installed in the "intercom_env", you must activate it first.

3. Install Jupyter (type in the shell):

    pip install jupyter
    
4. Run Jupyter notebook:

    jupyter notebook
