### I can't startup the script no matter what.
- Try `python3` or `python` or `py -3` as python have real issues about naming their program
### I can't open the self posts.
- Self posts are held at subreddit as Markdown. So, the script downloads them as Markdown in order not to lose their stylings. However, there is a great Chrome extension [here](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/markdown-viewer/ckkdlimhmcjmikdlpkmbgfkaikojcbjk) for viewing Markdown files with its styling. Install it and open the files with Chrome.
## Changelog
### 10/07/2018
