PyCIM has no dependencies beyond Python 2.5 or later. It can be easy_installed using setuptools:
$ easy_install PyCIM
Alternatively, download and unpack the tarball and install:
$ tar zxf PyCIM-XX.XX.tar.gz
$ python setup.py install
On UNIX systems, use sudo for the latter command if you need to install the scripts to a directory that requires root privileges:
$ sudo python setup.py install
The development Git repository can be cloned from GitHub:
$ git clone https://github.com/rwl/PyCIM.git
