 To install Matplotlib (and compile the c-extensions) run the following
 command from the top-level directory ::
 
-    pip install -v -e ./
+   python -mpip install -ve .
 
 This installs Matplotlib in 'editable/develop mode', i.e., builds
 everything and places the correct link entries in the install
 directory so that python will be able to import Matplotlib from the
 source directory.  Thus, any changes to the ``*.py`` files will be
 reflected the next time you import the library.  If you change the
