Description: This package is designed to enable quick and easy development of
        experiments in psychology/neuroscience. Most experiment scripts are coded
        up with a fairly ad-hoc `for t in trials` approach, which generally leads
        to inaccurate timing, accumulation of lag over trials, and in catastrophic
        cases, failure to log all the experimental parameters and responses of
        interest. It can also be surprisingly difficult to achieve more
        sophisticated presentation schemes (e.g., presenting a video while
        collecting keyboard responses and monitoring MRI scanner pulses) if you are
        coding everything up from scratch.
        
        # Install
        clone this repo and do `python setup.py install`. A reasonably recent
        version should also be on [pypi](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/expcontrol)
        so try `pip install expcontrol`. 
        
        # Do I need [psychopy](http://psychopy.org)?
        It's not a dependency, but at the moment you won't be able to use the package
        for much without it. All the psychopy-dependent code is in the psychopydep
        module, so psychopy can be swapped out for another timing/opengl/response
        logging solution as desired.
