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.
