Question

I first tried

pip install pynput

Then I got this error:

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement pynput (from versions: none) 
ERROR: No matching distribution found for pynput

Then I tried:

python -m pip install pynput

Then I got this:

Installing collected packages: python-xlib, pynput
Successfully installed pynput-1.5.0 python-xlib-0.25

So what is difference between "python -m pip install pynput" and "pip install pynput"? I do this inside a conda environment, which has python 2.7 in it

Accepted Answer

There is no different. pip is a python modul. Python allows you to start modules directly from shell because it is creating files in /usr/local/bin/pip. You run the same program.
