Thank you everyone who replied, for your help. Using the command prompt console, it accepts the first line of code, but doesn't seem to accept the second line. I have altered it a little, but it is not having any of it, I quote my console input and output here, as it can probably explain things better than I :-

I have tried writing "python setup.py install" 
ie putting the statement in inverted commas, but the console still seems to reject it  re:-

c:\Beautiful Soup>"python setup. py install"
'"python setup. py install"' is not recognized as an internal or external comman

operable program or batch file.

c:\Beautiful Soup>

Again I hope you python practitioners can help. I am only on page 12, and have another 99 pages to go, so can only hope it gets easier.
