You need to have the following software installed:
You can download Python from http://www.python.org/download.
You can download distuils from http://www.python.org/sigs/distutils-sig/download.html.
You can download OpenSSL from http://www.openssl.org/source/. This package is not used directly by Pisces. Rather Pisces uses amkCrypto, which requires OpenSSL.
You can download it from ftp://starship.python.net/pub/crew/amk/crypto/.
The top-level Pisces directory contains two scripts. The first test.py will run some tests to make sure that the Pisces libraries are working and that all the other software packages that are required have been installed. (The test framework will probably improve in future releases.)
The other script is setup.py. This is an install script
written using distutils. To install Pisces so that it is available
for use from Python, run ./setup.py install
