Installation

This part of the documentation covers the installation of Terminal. The first step to using any software package is getting it properly installed.

Distribute & Pip

Installing terminal is simple with pip:

$ pip install terminal

or, with easy_install:

$ easy_install terminal

But, you really shouldn’t do that.

Cheeseshop Mirror

If the Cheeseshop is down, you can also install Terminal from one of the mirrors. Crate.io is one of them:

$ pip install -i http://simple.crate.io/ terminal

Get the Code

Terminal is actively developed on GitHub, where the code is always available.

You can either clone the public repository:

git clone git://github.com/lepture/terminal.git

Download the tarball:

$ curl -OL https://github.com/lepture/terminal/tarball/master

Or, download the zipball:

$ curl -OL https://github.com/lepture/terminal/zipball/master

Once you have a copy of the source, you can embed it in your Python package, or install it into your site-packages easily:

$ python setup.py install
