Fail to download spaCy data model in Windows using Enthought Canopy

[wmaharani]

Hi..
I've installed spaCy by using the following command after unzipping:
python setup.py install

Now, I'm trying to download spaCy data model in Windows using Enthought Canopy with "python -m spacy download en".

But the following error occurs:

`(Canopy 64bit) C:\Users\Warih>python -m spacy download en

Sorry – this was a bug and has since been fixed on master. For more info and a workaround, see #970.

In short, the model downloaded and installed correctly, but spaCy failed to create a symlink for it in spacy/data. So you can either do that manually, or import the model as a module instead:

import en_core_web_sm
nlp = en_core_web_sm.load()
doc = nlp(u'This is a sentence.')
