I have the same problem Jani had and I tried this but it is not working for me. The window still appears when i run "django-admin.py startproject ". The window is the django-admin file and the text it contents is: #!/usr/bin/env python from django.core import management if __name__ == "__main__":

One more advice so you don't get caught with the problems: (Well I suggest that you start using virtualenvs as well, they really rock) After installing TCC/LE create one batch file (I use tcstart.btm) with the following contents: @echo off rem Set python binding to handle virtualenvironments

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 again, an editor widow opens (emacs in my case, since that is what I was using), and django doesn't create any files. Al

I really suggest you to use virtualenv, it makes your life easier in the long run. Also I use a TCC/LE instead of powershell / cmd prompt to mimic more unix like environment. Though you mentioned " After a while, if I try to start a new project, my editor opens and no files or directories are crea
