Problem
I was trying to use the context-monitor statusline on Windows and it just wouldn't work. After digging into it, I
found that all the downloaded configs use
python3commands, but Windows doesn't havepython3- it only haspython.This affects any statusline or hook that needs to run Python scripts.
Fixes #119
Changes
