It told me to install virtualenv. http://www.virtualenv.org/en/latest/#installation The virtualenv site told me: You can install virtualenv with pip install virtualenv, or the latest development version with pip install https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/tarball/develop.
But since I didn't yet have pip, I couldn't use it to install virtualenv. Then it said: You can also use easy_install, or if you have no Python package manager available at all, you can just grab the single file virtualenv.py and run it with pythonvirtualenv.py. I don't have easy_install. When I tried to download easy_install, it came in an EGG format that I couldn't open despite downloading several opener apps. I tried this page: https://raw.github.com/pypa/virtualenv/master/virtualenv.py I think this is what I'll have to use for installing virtualenv, but I have not idea what to do with it. I cut and pasted into a python file, then ran it in IDLE. When I ran main(), it returned the error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#8>", line 1, in <module> virtual_1.main() File "/Users/bfishbein/Documents/virtual_1.py", line 935, in main sys.exit(2) SystemExit: 2 I don't have much experience with command prompt interfaces which I think is causing most of my trouble. There's probably something simple I'm missing, like a semicolon or quotes. Please help if you can. Thank you, Ben
