## 2.3.1 System-wide installation

Having completed the steps described above, Pyxplot may be installed system-wide by a superuser with the following additional step:

    sudo make install

By default, the Pyxplot executable installs to `/usr/local/bin/pyxplot`. If desired, this installation path may be modified in the file `Makefile.skel`, by changing the variable `USRDIR` in the first line to an alternative desired installation location.

Pyxplot may now be started by any user of the system, simply by typing:

    pyxplot
