Description
I would like to step thru django-admin.py in an IDE debugger. (Eclipse and Pydev).
To do so I have attempted to run django-admin.py as follows:
from django.bin import django-admin
django-admin.main()
# (pydev allows me to supply the parms)
but the - in django-admin.py gives me a syntax error on both statements. If i rename django-admin.py to django_admin.py (- to _), all is well.
Perhaps you would consider making this change.
(I am a python newbie...so please cut me some slack if I am missing something simple.)
thx,

If you want to access django-admin.py's functionality programatically, use the functions in django.core.management.
