What I mean is, I can create 2 or 3 new projects without problems. I play 
with them and create files, etc. Then, for whatever reason, when I run 
django-admin.py startproject <projectname> again, an editor widow opens 
(emacs in my case, since that is what I was using), and django doesn't 
create any files. All I can do is edit the projects I already have created.
