Stable release¶
To install ged2doc, run this command in your terminal:
$ pip install ged2doc
This is the preferred method to install GEDCOM Utilities, as it will always install the most recent stable release.
If you don’t have pip installed, this Python installation guide can guide you through the process.
From sources¶
The sources for ged2doc can be downloaded from the Github repo.
You can either clone the repository:
$ git clone git://github.com/andy-z/ged2doc
Or download the tarball:
$ curl -OL https://github.com/andy-z/ged2doc/tarball/master

$ python setup.py install
Binary install on Windows¶
Both previous variants can be used on Windows platform if you install Python
first, any reasonable Python distribution can work. Alternative variant that
does not require Python installation is to install ged2doc as a separate
Windows application which includes all necessary components. Download an
installer (EXE file) from
latest release
(or any specific release) and execute it on your computer. After installation
Program Menu and Desktop will show a ged2doc
shortcut which starts a
command prompt with access to ged2doc
command line application.
