Warn user when a toyz module cannot be found

Currently when a toyz module cannot be found an exception is called and the code stops. Instead a warning should be returned to the user notifying them that a module is missing, but it shouldn't prevent them from running code.

UnboundLocalError in first time setup script

I'm trying to follow the instructions at http://fred3m.github.io/toyz/getting_started.html#first-time-setup, but I'm getting this error:

$ toyz

@fred3m – Can you reproduce / fix this?

Python 3 support?

I wanted to try out toyz and ran into this error:

$ python setup.py install --user
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 5, in <module>
    from toyz import version
  File "/Users/deil/code/toyz/toyz/__init__.py", line 1, in <module>
    import web
ImportError: No module named 'web'

This would be easy to fix – use explicit relative imports or absolute imports.

@fred3m Do you think Python 3 support would be easy to achieve for toys or are there some tricky parts that only work on Python 2?

Catch errors thrown by local machine permissions

When users are sharing directories it's possible that one of them may have created permissions that prevent other users from using/accessing that directory. Currently the code throws an error when this happens, but instead it should be caught so the user can be warned but it shouldn't kill the execution of a function.

SyntaxError: invalid syntax

After installing and trying to run toyz for the first time, I get this syntax error.

Dependency on importlib module

toyz seems to depend on importlib, but importlib is not installed along with toyz.

  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/toyz-0.0.dev-py2.6.egg/toyz/web/app.py", line 12, in <module>
    import importlib

Running pip install importlib fixes the broken dependency, but it would be nice if this happened automatically.
