I loaded the image back in October 2019. I am connected via putty and browser. I can run my files for jupyter labs but I cannot run pynq --help or pynq --version via terminal or putty. More suggestions would help.

In Python 3 terminal,

```python
import pynq
pynq. __version__

```

Thanks that worked. Syntax is my big problem. And here you need two underscore signs before and after the word version.
