another way is to use pip (if you have it installed). run

I am new to Python and tweepy. I have tried searching for an answer but haven't been able to get this working.
I have Java 6 (can't change to 7, for another project), python 2.7 and I have downloaded and extracted tweepy in my C drive.
Java and python are both in the PATH variables. I am trying to install tweepy and I keep getting this error.
C:\>cd C:\tweepy C:\tweepy>python Python 2.7.6 (default, Nov 10 2013, 19:24:24) [MSC v.1500 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>>setup.py build File "<stdin>", line 1 setup.py build ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax >>> setup.py install File "<stdin>", line 1 setup.py install ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax >>>
Where am I going wrong? Is it a configuration issue?
