Hello, greetings from the THD!

Nice to see that there is an official aRTist Python API!

I find the structure of the API and the calls not very intuitive. I have made a minimal suggestion for a more "pythonic" structure of the API. If the changes fit, I would also wrap the rest of the aRTist TCL/TK commands accordingly.

1. More standard module structure: move the aRTist.py file to the module folder etc.
2. Change to a more python PEP8 style: get_Obj_IDs() -> get_object_ids()
3. Wrap the commands in python functions (see get_object_ids function )
4. Add python class object of the hardware components (see Xray Source )

An example of the usage can be seen here: example_api.py.
