Update install options #221

Hello Randall, |
Thanks for adding the new argument. I think that we should also suggest something like "if you only plan to use PyClaw and/or Visclaw", you may wish to simply do
since that avoids some of the issues you are referring to. I would include this in the "warning" on installing.html. Or we could just suggest the python-only and fortran-only installation methods first (not as a warning) with the "everything" installation line as a secondary option, since it is the problematic one. I think it's rather discouraging to start the installation instructions with a warning, and I believe there are very few people in the world who care about installing both parts. |
The new version looks great to me. Thanks for doing this. |

I also added more description of the differences between PyClaw and
the Python modules used by Fortran versions to the
pyclaw/index.rst
page.@ketch, @mandli: Please take a look at the diffs and the draft rendered pages at
and let me know if these look ok.
I also removed the
conda install
discussion from the main pyclaw page, but it is still here:I assume this should be removed?

We still recommend Anaconda and Enthought. Should this be updated?
