Sloth is an executable Python script . So, to run it you can call it from terminal:
PATH_PREFIX_TO_YOUR_PYTHON/Python27/Lib/site-packages/sloth/bin/sloth
You might add sloth script directory to your PATH , by editing yout .bashrc file:
export PATH=$PATH:PUT_PATH_TO_SLOTH_HERE
And then run source .bashrc in order for changes to take effect. After that, typing sloth in a terminal window should open the GUI.
In Windows, I managed to run it using Git Bash (Git installation for Windows provides a Bash emulator by default) . In a Git Bash terminal Window, use the following (you may need to chage if your Python installation directory is different):
/c/Python27/Lib/site-packages/sloth/bin/sloth
