pysay installation

this file is part of pysay v2.0.0

In any case you need python: the latest Python (2 or 3) version should work. Please consider to install the standard cowsay: you might want to enjoy the other fun cows that are bundled with that software.

  • To install this script on a Unix-like OS:

    • cd into the package root folder
    • # python setup.py install

  • Under a Win OS just execute the script from a shell (MSDOS emulator):

    • copy the cows folder into your %APPDATA% folder (if you want to use the .cow files that come with cowsay, put them into the same folder)

    • cd into the script directory (or put it into a folder in the system path)

    • you need to call Python to execute the script, so:

          python pysay [...]

      or (the geeky way) add the .PY extension to the PATHEXT environment variable (and renaming pysay to pysay.py). This allow you to call directly the script:

          pysay [...]

    • (optional) create a symlink to pysay called pythink in the same folder of pysay
