=== Start Eden ===
Once you've run the installer, and you just want to try your installation of Eden, without Eclipse, you can start web2py from the command line:
{{{
cd C:\Path\To\Installation\web2py
C:\Python27\python.exe web2py.py
}}}
N.B: Obviously replace Python27 with your own version of Python.

Or if you prefer, you can start it from the GUI (Graphical User Interface):[[BR]]
Click Start > My Computer.[[BR]]
Browse to the directory with "web2py.py" and the Eden program inside.[[BR]]
Double click the web2py.py file - this should start up web2py, which will look something similar to this:

Enter a one time admin password and hit "start server".
Then you can go open http://127.0.0.1:8000/eden in your internet browser to run Sahana Eden.

=== Getting the latest revision ===
 Note: This will reuse any pre-installed Python-2.7 environment.[[BR]]
 Note: You do not need to do this if you used the installer.exe file unless you wish to update your eden version to the latest change.

* Install Git and set up an account on !GitHub: 
 * http://help.github.com/win-set-up-git/
* Fork your own copy of Eden:
 * https://github.com/flavour/eden/fork_select
* Update your local repo:
{{{
cd web2py\applications\eden
git pull
}}}
* Modify the source for this version, by editing eden\.git\config
{{{
url = git@github.com:mygitusername/eden.git
}}}
* Add trunk as the upstream:
{{{
git remote add upstream git://github.com/flavour/eden.git
}}}
* copy {{{private/templates/000_config.py}}} to {{{/models}}} and set FINISHED_EDITING_CONFIG_FILE = True
