Maybe you're trying out material for a stand-up comedy routine, but I'm sure you're aware that the sentence you quote sensibly obviates repeating the semantics of "install", which have just been described in detail in the immediately preceding paragraph. If it did repeat them, wouldn't you mock the docs anyway, for redundancy? Regards, -- John -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
