     Subject: Python Module issues (specifically pip)
     Greetings!
     My name is Gustavo Davis.  I am enjoying immensely what I'm learning
     about Python and all that it has to offer. Keep up the good work with
     Python and please continue making it one of the most popular and open
     source programming languages. 
     For right now the only thing that is causing me issues is with getting
     Pip to run on my PC. I've downloaded the files to my desktop folder and
     Ive even tried to look up the answers on youtube and other places. Some
     of the answers I understand about going to
     start>computer>properties>advancesystemsetttings>environmentvariables>path>edit
     and then add something like this:
     ;C:\Python34\Scripts\pip
     C:\Users\Owner\Desktop\Python Folder\Scripts
     But for some reason after I made the changes and saved them they wont
     run. I mean once I go to the file and right click on them and click run
     the cmd prompt pops up for a moment and then it just closes down and the
     pip module never runs in python. I have version 3.4.4. and 3.5.1. I'm
     very new to Python and I have to admit I'm not used to using the cmd
     prompt to install modules and I'm not sure that I understand how to do
     that. Any help you can give with this would be greatly appreciated. This
     problem has me stomped so much I almost wanted to give up for a while on
     Python. But I still have a love for its goals and its philosophy and
     that's what continues to draw me to it. I've very new to programming in
     general and thats why I when I came across Python I wanted to learn it
     and even work primarily a Python Developer one day. I know that most
     likely this question that has been addressed on the website. However I
     just kinda felt frustrated and wanted to speak with someone directly
     since I don't know much about programming at all. Below in the
     attachments are some the errors I keep getting even with IDLE. Please
     have a good day and thank you for taking out the time to listen to me.
