Answer 1

Try to either cd into folder with script (cd "C:\Python27\Tools\Scripts") or add this folder to your PATH variable.

Answer 2

For Linux/Mac, you can go for

curl 'https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py' > get-pip.py && sudo python get-pip.py

1. Fetching installer
2. Executing file with superuser access

Answer 3

Go to this link - https://www.liquidweb.com/kb/how-to-install-pip-on-ubuntu-14-04-lts/

For me it installed in

vagrant@vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-64:/vagrant$ which pip /usr/local/bin/pip

So there is a mistake in the post as the command pip --help

will not work.

vagrant@vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-64:/vagrant$ pip --help -bash: /usr/bin/pip: No such file or directory

But you still have pip installed.

Enjoy!
