If you are on Windows it should be executable already,
just double click on the main file in Windows Explorer
and it should run. If not the file associations need setting.

If you are on a Unix based system you will need to use
chmod +x to  make the file executable. You will also
need the shebang line set:

#! /bin/env python

or whatever is appropriate on your system.

HTH,
