pylex's Issues

missing packages

Add click and lxml to requirements.txt .
For ast I got an error, thus I had to remove it.
Also, add the shebang line to the beginning:

#!/usr/bin/env python3

Language support

Which languages are supported? And are there plans to role out the support?

EOL syntax error from JSON

I've been playing with the homophones() function and the API data does not copy correctly for URL. For example when I run.

lex = Lex("pop")
wordlist = lex.homophones()
print(lex)
lex.display_wordlist(wordlist, len(wordlist))

the output is as follows.

I've visited the webpage and there are four words, I'm just raising awareness. Sorry if the formatting is incorrect this is my first comment.

remove json from requirements.txt

$ python --version
Python 3.6.5
$ python -m pip install json
Collecting json
  Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement json (from versions: )

However, taking json out of requirements.txt fixes the issue.
