Hello,
I have python up and running using the exact setup as recommended by
http://learnpythonthehardway.org/
I am now trying to use pdfminer.
I have python here:
C:\USERS\Python27
using "import os", i am able to cwd to C:\users\python where i have
C:\users\python\pdfminer-master\.
when i navigate to the child directory and run "setup.py install" i get the
following issue:
setup.py install
File "<stdin>", line 1
setup.py install
^
i have no idea why, any input?
thanks!
Do you really have the ">>>" prompt? If yes, then you're asking Python
to run a console (OS) command.
You should be running "setup.py install" in a console ("Command
Prompt") window, something like:
cd C:\users\python\pdfminer-master
C:\USERS\Python27\python.exe \setup.py install
ok makes sense.
i am running now from command line and get the following:
P:\>C:\USERS\Python27\python.exe C:\users\Python27\pdfminer-master\setup.py inst
all
running install
running build
running build_py
error: package directory 'pdfminer' does not exist

also this is my dir:

My fellow Pythonistas, ask not what our language can do for you, ask
what you can do for our language.
