##############

To help you get started with a new script, we provide a tool called :ref:`popy_create` that generates an example of one of the :ref:`script_formats`. You do this by opening a :ref:`open_a_popy_command_prompt` and typing:-

.. code-block:: console

    popy create [script_type] my_script.pyml

where ``[script_type]`` is one of the script names (``fit``, ``gen``, ``tut``, and so on.). See :ref:`script_formats` for a list of all script types.
 
Typically, the new script can then be edited using your text editor of choice to suit current requirements or immediately run using :ref:`popy_run`. See :ref:`create_scripts` for more information.
