Re: Sphinx on Windows

Grab https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py and do `python get-pip.py' from a command prompt (might need to be elevated, not sure). After that 'pip' should be available and you can do 'pip install sphinx'. On Mon, Oct 26, 2015 at 10:41 AM, Simon Peyton Jones wrote:

I have not tried that. But 'pip' gives "command not found".

Maybe I need something in my path? I appear to have python 2.7.5 installed; it does not appear to have pip.exe.
