[yt-users] editing yt source code

[Nathan Goldbaum]

Hi Stephanie,

Do "python setup.py develop" in the root of the yt installation.

This is documented here:

http://yt-project.org/docs/dev/installing.html#installing-yt-using-pip-or-from-source

By the way, if you are using the new conda-based install script, you can
set "INST_YT_SOURCE=1" at the top, and it will install yt from a clone of
the yt mercurial repository for you.
