 Check if you already have an adequate version of Python installed by running
-``python -V``. Python v2.4 (v2.4.4 or greater), Python v2.5, Python v2.6, or
-Python v2.7 will work. Python v3 does not work. On Windows, we recommend the
-use of native Python, not Cygwin. If you don't have one of these versions of
-Python installed, download and install `Python v2.7`_. Make sure that the
-path to the installation directory has no spaces in it (e.g. on Windows, do
-not install Python in the "Program Files" directory).
