Yeah, but first I had to figure out how to install easy_install

Also unrelated to the OP, but a far superior Commnad line interface to
Windows is the (unhelpfully-named) 'console' program:

This has tabbed windows, preset directory navigation, good copy/paste
facilities, the ability to configure different shells, etc etc.

Well worth a look.
