 =====================================================

+When you run Python, the module search path ``sys.modules`` usually
 includes a directory whose path ends in ``"site-packages"``.  This
 directory is intended to hold locally-installed packages available to
 all users on a machine or using a particular site installation.
 
 Python 2.6 introduces a convention for user-specific site directories.
+The directory varies depending on the platform:
+
+* Unix and MacOS: :file:`~/.local/`
+* Windows: :file:`%APPDATA%/Python`
+
+Within this directory, there will be version-specific subdirectories,
+such as :file:`lib/python2.6/site-packages` on Unix/MacOS and
+:file:`Python26/site-packages` on Windows.
+
+If you don't like the default directory, it can be overridden by an
+environment variable.  :envvar:`PYTHONUSERBASE` sets the root
+directory used for all Python versions supporting this feature.  On
+Windows, the directory for application-specific data can be changed by
+setting the :envvar:`APPDATA` environment variable.  You can also
+modify the :file:`site.py` file for your Python installation.
+
+The feature can be disabled entirely by running Python with the
+:option:`-s` option or setting the :envvar:`PYTHONNOUSERSITE`
+environment variable.
