Hide
If a user ran the python-3-requiring networking scripts using python 2, they get an error message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./packages/examples/tools/udpSendReceive.py", line 119, in <module>
buffer[-1] = (~i).to_bytes(sizeNegI + 1, byteorder='big', signed=True)[-1]
AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'to_bytes'

Scripts that require Python 3 now detect if they are using python 2 and gives a more obvious message instead.
