===================================================

**Operating systems**: Linux, Windows, OSX, Unix

**Requirements**: setuptools_ or Distribute_

**Installers**: ``easy_install`` and ``pip``

easy install or pip ``py``
-----------------------------

Both `Distribute`_ and setuptools_ provide the ``easy_install``
installation tool with which you can type into a command line window::

    easy_install -U py

to install the latest release of the py lib.  The ``-U`` switch
will trigger an upgrade if you already have an older version installed.

.. note::

   As of version 1.4 py does not contain py.test anymore - you
   need to install the new `pytest`_ distribution.
