Unknown python execution error after running 'blended init' about blended HOT 4 OPEN

I am not the only one!

I got a workaround. If you installed Blended through Python Pip, you can install the 4.9 version.

from blended.

Blended is not supported with the latest version of python. Sorry.

from blended.

This would seem to be a documentation issue, then. I suggest adding a description of steps required to install using a current version of Python, and/or specify the versions of Python you do support. Thanks!

As a bit of assistance to whomever might wander across this issue in the future, here are the commands you need to type if you want to use the workaround recommended by tinglar above:
pip uninstall blended # uninstall the previously installed blended
pip install blended==4.9 # install a version that works with Python 3.7.5

from blended.
