======================================

Building
--------

In the root directory for the matrix library simply type

      $ sudo apt-get install python2.7-dev
      $ make build-python
      $ make install-python

Using the library
-----------------

```python
#!/usr/bin/env python
from rgbmatrix import RGBMatrix
import time

rows = 16
chains = 1
parallel = 2
myMatrix = RGBMatrix(rows, chains, parallel)
myMatrix.Fill(255, 0, 0)
time.sleep(5)
myMatrix.Clear()
```
