Getting the latest release¶
If you have easy_install available on your system, nitime can be downloaded and install by issuing:

Otherwise, you can grab the latest release of the source-code at this page
Or, at the cheeseshop
If you want to download the source-code as it is being developed (pre-release), follow the instructions here: Following the latest source
Or, if you just want to look at the current development, without using our source version-control system, go here
Building from source¶
The installation process is similar to other Python packages so it will be familiar if you have Python experience.
Unpack the tarball and change into the source directory. Once in the source directory, you can build nitime using:
python setup.py install
