Installing packages on Windows is not necessarily easy when
they contain C++ code. I usually use
`Unofficial Windows Binaries for Python Extension Packages <http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/>`_
for one package but it requires some tricks to start from
scratch and install all the needed packages.
That's what this package is doing.
The module helps installing modules in *Windows* and *Linux*.
It installs two scripts. The first one installs modules:

    pymy_install3

The second one updates installed modules::

    pymy_update3

For a specific module::

    pymy_update3 <module_name>

To install a preconfigured set of modules::

    pymy_install3 --set=pyquickhelper

``--help`` gives the usage.

It provides the following functionalities:

* help installing module from GitHub, pip and setup
* install other common tools or editors
* provides a list of modules to install to use Python to manipulate data (IPython, pandas, scikit-learn...)
* function to build a setup with Python, R and useful packages like `WinPython <https://winpython.github.io/>`_

Source of the packages:

* `PyPI <https://pypi.python.org/pypi>`_: pure python packages
* `Unofficial Windows Binaries for Python Extension Packages <http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/>`_: packages with C++
* `xavierdupre.fr <http://www.xavierdupre.fr/>`_: custom build (xgboost, ...)
