Getting Started

Kiwi is available in the Python package index, so that you can simply do:

 easy_install kiwi

or you can get the latest version, unpack the archive and do:

 python setup.py install

this will install a kiwi command and also install the kiwi module in your Python environment.

To try out Kiwi, edit some text in a file, and do:

 kiwi myfile.txt myfile.html

to convert your file to HTML.

Git repository

[we had Mercurial repositories before, but we switched to Git !]

Kiwi now has a Git repository where you can check out the latest version. If you have Git (git) installed, simply do the following:

$ git clone http://www.ivy.fr/kiwi/kiwi.git
and you will have the Kiwi main repository, which you can update by typing 
$ git pull
When you make modifications, send me the patch file, I will review it and integrate it into the repository.
