and tried to install the package in by running the command:

"sudo python setup.py install:

but there is no setup file in the package for the python3 version :( I've been trying to install swampy for 2 days and I just cannot figure it out... a problem at every turn. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hmm.... and you went to to this site: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/swampy And downloaded this file: https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/s/swampy/swampy-2.1.7.tar.gz#md5=db460de45df1327c91b4e1df70b8ba46 I looked into it and found the file is still there...

That command is for installing pip on a Mac.  You have to be in the pip directory to run it.  Once you get pip installed, you can cd into the swampy folder and run

sudo pip install swampy
