How do I start using twill? I have just downloaded it, unpacked it and clicked on the setup .py file in the folder. The black window (terminal) appeared for a moment and vanished.

(I do have Python 2.5 installed on my computer - along with SDK from Google App Engine)

In the twill documentation section it says:


Downloading twill

The latest release of twill is twill 0.9, released Thursday, December 27th, 2007; it is available for download at http://darcs.idyll.org/~t/projects/twill-0.9.tar.gz. You can also use Python's easy_install to install or upgrade twill.

twill works with Python 2.3 or later.

To start using twill, install it and then type twill-sh. At the prompt type:

go http://www.slashdot.org/

show

showforms

showhistory


I am not clear from this passage what I am supposed to type (only "twill-sh" or "twill-sh" and all the words under that line) and where (I tried typing it in the command prompt window of my computer - to no avail)

Can, anyone, please, help me out here?

Thank You in advance.
