Well, it's just one additional command to type in - it's really neither here nor there as long as it's well documented.
There is already a getpip.py that's just not distributed with Python. So if "There is only one additional command to type" was the excuse than we already have that: curl https://raw.github.com/pypa/pip/master/contrib/get-pip.py | python But for various reasons many projects have decided that expecting people to install the tools is difficult, especially for beginners and that simply documenting the command to install it was not enough. ----------------- Donald Stufft PGP: 0x6E3CBCE93372DCFA // 7C6B 7C5D 5E2B 6356 A926 F04F 6E3C BCE9 3372 DCFA
