We lose four manual notes, but there was nothing all that important in
those anyways. Makes the docs nice and uniform after the switch to git.
Plus of course the links to issues are 100x more useful than any text
you could type there.

Mopy/Docs/Wrye Bash Advanced Readme.html:
Readme.md:
Some edits for clarification in the Python Components section of the
readme, bumping the py2 version, and dropping the stupidly complicated
instructions for scandir (just use pip install -r requirements.txt).

<p>If you are installing the Python version of Wrye Bash and wish to install the Python dependencies separately, the following must be installed.</p>
<p>Installation is easiest by just using pip, which comes with Python (see below). Simply run <code>path/to/python.exe -m pip install -r requirements.txt</code>
(obviously replacing <code>path/to/python.exe</code> with the actual path to your python.exe).</p>

ways to install Scandir, in levels of increasing complexity
<ul>
<li>The first is to download the Scandir wheel file (.whl)&nbsp; and install it using the Pip command line tool.</li>
<ul>
<li>Browse to the <a href="https://pypi.python.org/pypi/scandir" target="_blank">official Python Scandir page</a> and download <a href="https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/9e/a5/56b4dec02b16bb720cac9872fccd63b61a815b70633ef15bfe3ea5ce4488/scandir-1.9.0-cp27-cp27m-win32.whl" target="_blank">scandir-1.9.0-cp27-cp27m-win32.whl</a> or newer. Remember the path to the download location on your hard disk.&nbsp; For this example we will use "C:\Downloads\".
<li>Open a Windows command or Powershell prompt and issue the <code>command python.exe -m pip install C:\Downloads\scandir-1.9.0-cp27-cp27m-win32.whl</code></li>
<li>Follow the instructions on screen if any appear.
</ul>
<li>The second method is to install Scandir via the Python pip package manager.
</li>
<ul>
<li>Open a Windows command prompt or Powershell prompt.
<li>Issue the command <code>python.exe -m pip install --upgrade scandir</code>
<ul>
<li>You may be asked to install the 'Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7'. In this event, download and install the compiler from the <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=44266" target="_blank">official Microsoft download page</a>.
<li>You may also be asked to install Python "setuptools". To install setuptools, issue the command (from within the same command prompt is fine) <code>python.exe -m pip install --upgrade setuptools</code>
<li>Once these two tools are installed the installation should proceed as expected.
</ul>

<h3>305 Bug fixes and enhancements [2014/08/23] [Various community members]</h3>
<ul>
<li>Due to the change from the BOSS API to the LOOT API, and due to internal changes in the way the Standalone is created, <strong>no</strong> MSVC redistributables are required for either Python or Standalone Wrye Bash.</li>
<li>Corrected the "Cannot load plugins before masters" error that many users were experiencing. [WrinklyNinja]</li>
<li>Corrected the "'int' object has no attribute 'startswith'" error that often happened when using the Race Patcher. [jfpelland]</li>
<li>The Standalone no longer reads loose Python files. This was originally a method to allow small updates, however it ends up causing problems if you have Python files from an older Wrye Bash along side a newer Stadnalone. [lojack5]</li>
<li>Corrected an error when adding a shortcut to a batch script to the Apps folder. [jfpelland]</li>
<li>Corrected errors with the DocBrowser when the set document file was missing. [lojack5]</li>
<li>Corrected BAIN Regression: BAIN was not uninstalling all files. This was affecting both uninstalling and annealling. [lojack5]</li>
<li>Corrected a few rare Wizard exceptions. [lojack5]</li>
<li>Corrected an error for some users with Backup Bash Settings. [jfpelland]</li>
<li>Corrected an error in the Installers Tab after deleting a Save Game. [lojack5]</li>
<li>Corrected an issue that caused the Bashed Patch Tweak Settings to be non-persistent. [lojack5]</li>
<li>Fixed "Copy Conflicts to Project" [Utumno]</li>
<li>Includes bluesky404's updates for Chinese Traditional and Simplified. [bluesky404/Sharlikran]</li>
<li>Various Readme Updates. [Sharlikran]</li>
<li>Updated taglist.yaml files (bundled Bash Tags list). [Sharlikran]</li>
<li>Updated Oblivion record definitions. [Shalikran]</li>
<li>BOSS launcher fixes. [WrinklyNinja]</li>
