| 207 | | 4. Copy the file ``django-trunk/django/bin/django-admin.py`` to somewhere on |
|---|
| 208 | | your system path, such as ``/usr/local/bin`` (Unix) or ``C:\Python24\Scripts`` |
|---|
| 209 | | (Windows). This step simply lets you type ``django-admin.py`` from within |
|---|
| 210 | | any directory, rather than having to qualify the command with the full path |
|---|
| 211 | | to the file. |
|---|
| | 207 | 4. On Unix-like systems, create a symbolic link to the file |
|---|
| | 208 | ``django-trunk/django/bin/django-admin.py`` in a directory on your system |
|---|
| | 209 | path, such as ``/usr/local/bin``. For example:: |
|---|
| | 210 | |
|---|
| | 211 | ln -s `pwd`/django-trunk/django/bin/django-admin.py /usr/local/bin |
|---|
| | 212 | |
|---|
| | 213 | This simply lets you type ``django-admin.py`` from within any directory, |
|---|
| | 214 | rather than having to qualify the command with the full path to the file. |
|---|
| | 215 | |
|---|
| | 216 | On Windows systems, the same result can be achieved by copying the file |
|---|
| | 217 | ``django-trunk/django/bin/django-admin.py`` to somewhere on your system |
|---|
| | 218 | path, for example ``C:\Python24\Scripts``. |
