Installing Python-Markdown
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
Checking Dependencies
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
Python-Markdown requires the ElementTree module to be installed. In Python2.5+
|
|
ElementTree is included as part of the standard library. For earlier versions
|
|
of Python, open a Python shell and type the following:
|
|
|
|
>>> import cElementTree
|
|
>>> import ElementTree
|
|
|
|
If at least one of those does not generate any errors, then you have a working
|
|
copy of ElementTree installed on your system. As cElementTree is faster, you
|
|
may want to install that if you don't already have it and it's available for
|
|
your system.
|
|
|
|
See <http://effbot.org/zone/element-index.htm> for more information or to
|
|
download the latest version of ElementTree.

If you plan to use the provided command line script, you need to make sure your
|
|
script directory is on your system path. On a typical Python install of Windows
|
|
the Scripts directory is `C:\Python25\Scripts\`. Adjust according to your
|
|
system and add that to your system path.
