Using python2 is a portable way to assure the correct python is used on most distributions. Attached is a patch which addresses all calls to 'python'

Just submitted pull request https://github.com/Mikachu/openbox/pull/9 for python3 support. The scripts will also support python2 at the users choice.  If PYTHON is defined at configure, the provided executable path is used for the PYTHON scripts.    Thus the user can provide whatever name is appropriate for their environment.
