Hello. I am not new to the wonderful site - Just lost login credentials
I am resuming work via Python and must make some installs into my Lib.
I am having trouble with this - I have not used Python in 2-3 years.
Many syntax errors. This is from install snips I got from a Python site.
I need to install easyinstall and scrapy.
For easyinstall I enter and run:
#!python
"""Bootstrap setuptools installation
If you want to use setuptools in your package's setup.py, just include this
file in the same directory with it, and add this to the top of your setup.py::
from ez_setup import use_setuptools
use_setuptools()
If you want to require a specific version of setuptools, set a download
mirror, or use an alternate download directory, you can do so by supplying
the appropriate options to ``use_setuptools()``.
This file can also be run as a script to install or upgrade setuptools.

Upon running this, I get this message at the bottom:
"Bootstrap setuptools installation\n\nIf you want to use setuptools in your package's setup.py, just include this\nfile in the same directory with it, and add this to the top of your setup.py::\n\n from ez_setup import use_setuptools\n use_setuptools()\n\nIf you want to require a specific version of setuptools, set a download\nmirror, or use an alternate download directory, you can do so by supplying\nthe appropriate options to ``use_setuptools()``.\n\nThis file can also be run as a script to install or upgrade setuptools.\n"
I'm confused, honestly.
I do not have trouble coding, but setting up an environment I can find a bit tricky at times.
Any hints/advice will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
