code: def build_readme(base_path=None):
      
      if base_path:
          path = os.path.join(base_path, 'README.md')
      else:
          path = 'README.md'
      convert_md_to_rst(path)
      print("Successfully converted README.md to README.rst")
docs: Call the conversion routine on README.md to generate README.rst.
      Why do all this? Because pypi requires reStructuredText, but markdown
      is friendlier to work with and is nicer for GitHub.
