Installation on Linux
---------------------

Installation is easy. Just as with many other Python package, you need to use
the provided setup.py script. For example:

    python setup.py install

or, if you want to specify a different installation directory:

    python setup.py install --prefix /some/where

Note: if you want to have the documentation generated and installed, you need
epydoc and LaTeX. See http://epydoc.sourceforge.net/ and
http://www.latex-project.org/ for more information.

Configuration for use
---------------------

If you have installed on a custom directory, you need to add it to your Python
path. For example, if you have installed with Python 2.4, and you use a sh-like
shell, just do:

    export PYTHONPATH=/some/where/lib/python2.4/site-packages:$PYTHONPATH

If you have a csh-like shell:

    setenv PYTHONPATH /some/where/lib/python2.4/site-packages:$PYTHONPATH

Note that this must be done each time you make a new shell. (you could add the
line to your .profile, .bashrc, .cshrc, ... depending on your shell. See its
documentation).
