  <p>I quite don't understand this part :</p>
  
  <p>*Create a database named "imdb" (or whatever you like),
  using the tool provided by your database; as an example, for MySQL
  you will use the 'mysqladmin' command:
    # mysqladmin -p create imdb
  For PostgreSQL, you have to use the "createdb" command:
    # createdb -W imdb</p>
  
  <p>To create the tables and to populate the database, you must run
  the imdbpy2sql.py script:
    # imdbpy2sql.py -d /dir/with/plainTextDataFiles/ -u 'URI'</p>
  
  <p>Where the 'URI' argument is a string representing the connection
  to your database, with the schema:
    scheme://[user[:password]@]host[:port]/database[?parameters]*</p>
  
  <p>How do i run that imdbpy2sql.py script? </p>
