Getting Started
---------------

To start debugging, simply insert::

into the piece of code you want to debug, or run the entire script with::

python -m pudb.run my-script.py

Getting the Development Version
-------------------------------

You may obtain the development version using the `Git <http://git-scm.org/>`_
version control tool.::

git clone http://git.tiker.net/trees/pudb.git

You may also `browse the code <http://git.tiker.net/pudb.git>`_ online.
