⁠Interact with Minecraft using Python

To get started, do the following:

1. Find out your Docker VM's IP. For Boot2Docker, run "boot2docker ip"
2. Run Minecraft and add your IP as a new server.
3. Join Multiplayer.
4. Now you are ready to interact with Minecraft using Python!

Note: Step #3 is important, because certain Python methods require a player to be present in server (such as .playerPos())
