[Eric] Installing Eric6

[Colin J. Williams]

Detlev,

Many thanks for your response.  Since seeking guidance, using the 
procedure described below, I have succeeded in installing Eric6 and 
started with my first module.

Now, I am all at sea, trying to set the various options for Eric6.  It 
looks as though Eric is a powerful tool.  I come from PyScripter, after  
few year break.

Thanks again got your message.

Colin W.

    [Note: PyScripter, developed by Kiriakos Vlahos, was an excellent
    IDE, but  it is no longer maintained.

    Ninja appears to be limited to Python2]

Download Eric 6 installer package from their website here 
<http://eric-ide.python-projects.org/eric-download.html>. After 
downloading the zip file extract it on your disk. Now copy the location 
of the folder. If you extract the files in the downloads folder, the 
location path will be something like: 
C:usersYOURPCNAMEdownloadseric6extracted

Now open command prompt(type cmd in windows search and hit Enter). Now 
type cd and paste the path of the folder location and hit Enter. Now 
open the folder through windows explorer and make sure there is an 
install.py file in the extracted directory. If it is, switch to command 
prompt again and type install.py and hit Enter.
