Install p on windows

Howto install p on windows

Create a folder

First create a folder where you will save the p executable:

For example:

mkdir C:\Users\bob\p

Then download the p.exe into the folder. Now you can doubleclick in it to start.

That's it.

PowerShell

I often use the powershell to run p.exe to be able to see eventually appearing error messages. To start p from a powershell just run powershell, change into the folder where the p.exe resides and run it:

cd C:\Users\bob\p
.\p.exe

Open a special database file

If you use more databases than the default p database (p.db) you can customize the p.exe commandline arguments to open another p database:

.\p.exe -D my_special_p_database.db
