easy_install with pypy while Python is installed

I installed PyPy while still having Python 2.7 on my system.

  • How do I install and then use easy_install with PyPy?
  • What is the syntax for distinguishing where I want to install to with easy_install?
  • Should I set any environment variables for ease of use?

I'm on Windows, but these questions seem relevant for all platform...

Solution

  • You need to install easy_install for pypy manually.
