Local Install
-------------
## Local install
You can install Supybot in a local directory by using the '--user'
option when running 'setup.py'. E.g., 'python setup.py install
--user' to install into your home directory. You'll now have
a $HOME/.local/bin directory containing Supybot programs ('supybot',
'supybot-wizard', etc.) and a $HOME/.local/lib directory containing the
Supybot libraries.

By default you must run the bot with full path to the binary unless you specify $PATH.
Run and add the following command to your shellrc, which is usually ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc , so you can run the programs without needing to write full paths to the binaries.
```
PATH=$HOME/.local:$PATH

You should now be able to type 'python' to start the Python

setup, you'll want to cd into the directory that was created when you
unzipped Supybot; I'll assume you unzipped it to 'C:\Supybot' for these
