[Python-mode] [Novice]enabling python-mode

[Saurabh Agrawal]

Hi,

I have just started picking up both the python language and emacs. So I am
new to both arenas (thought not new to computers and programming using
IDEs).

I have downloaded python-mode.el from launchpad and have placed it in folder
Program Files\emacs\emacs-22.3\lisp\progmodes.

After that I compiled it to byte code, using emacs' built in compiler.

I have got a python-mode.elc, as a result.

Now I am able to do M-x python-mode and I get a (Python) status on the
mode-line.

However, it is not auto-indenting. Also shouldn't it say (Python-mode) on
the mode-line?

I am not able to find any tutorial for this. Does there exist one?

Thanks a lot for reading such basic questions.

Regards,

Saurabh Agrawal.
