-
-   Then, every time you're ready to work on the project, just run
-

-
-        $ paver lms
-
-   Or to start Django on a different <port#>
-
-        $ ./manage.py lms runserver <port#>
-
-  If the  Django development server starts properly you
-  should see:

-      Development server is running at http://127.0.0.1:<port#>/
-      Quit the server with CONTROL-C.
