Information on how to properly install Twython
*******************************************************************************
Pip or Easy Install
-------------------

$ pip install twython
or, with `easy_install <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools>`_::
$ easy_install twython
But, hey... `that's up to you <http://www.pip-installer.org/en/latest/other-tools.html#pip-compared-to-easy-install>`_.

Twython is actively maintained on GitHub
Feel free to clone the repository::
git clone git://github.com/ryanmcgrath/twython.git
`tarball <https://github.com/ryanmcgrath/twython/tarball/master>`_::

`zipball <https://github.com/ryanmcgrath/twython/tarball/master>`_::
