Never mind. I knew I was being a complete idiot about this. THe scroll bar 
apparently doesn't show up until you hover over it, and I didn't realize 
that only the bottom page of the file was showing.

Oh, I should probably mention that I'm on a Mac Os X 10.8 and running 
djangostack from BitNami

Am I supposed to create the keys inside the request bracket? Or am I just 
reading the settings.py file in incorrectly somehow?

editing python module

2013-07-04 Thread Jennifer Look
I am brand new to all this, and just starting to work my way through the 
Django tutorial. I got to the "Database setup" step, where it says to edit 
mysite/settings.py 
and I'm stymied.
The previous step was to start the development server. I should quit the 
server before editing variables, right?
How do I edit the settings.py file? It seems like I should just be able to 
open the file in a text editor, but I can't seem to figure our how from the 
bask prompt.

Thanks for any suggestions!
Jen
