-
Or, in the Windows Command, run command:

This second option allows you to use parameters. For example, if you have several .json files and you want to choose which one to use :
python LimitSwap.py -s settingsBSC.json -t tokensBSC.json
or
python LimitSwap.py --benchmark
DO THIS ONCE
sudo -s
apt-get install python3-dev build-essential python3-pip
