pip install in Python

So tonight I was reading and following the Python Developers Guide and it said to install Sphinx.  I clicked on the link to Sphinx and it was down.

So then I went to #pyladies for help and someone told me to manually install it. 

Couldn’t get that to work so someone else came and said that all I had to do was to type in:

pip install Sphinx

It worked.

Seems there is a whole list of stuff at https://pypi.python.org/simple/ that you can install that way.  Better formatted at https://pypi.python.org/pypi
