    from PyQt4.QtGui import *
ImportError: No module named PyQt4.QtGui

Replace "from PyQt4..." to from PyQt5..."?

Hi,

I tried changing what you said and now i'm getting this error:

Error:
File "./wlcreator.py", line 54
    print "COMMAND:",command
          ^
SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print'. Did you mean print("COMMAND:",command)?
I've tried changing this line with the one it thinks it should be and now i get this error

Error:
File "./wlcreator.py", line 66
    if len(output) > 0: print "OUTPUT:\n",output
                              ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Looks like your scripts are written in Python 2 and you are now using Python 3. print is a function in Python 3. Here is a porting guide.

change your imports

import sys
import glob
import os
import tempfile
import subprocess
import shlex
import shutil
from configparser import ConfigParser
import urllib

from PyQt5.QtWidgets import *
from PyQt5.QtGui import *
from PyQt5.QtCore import *
and put all print in brackets
