  • Place the file xkcd.py in the Python installation directory on your drive.
  • Double-click to execute or do it through the command line with the command python xkcd.py.
  • You will be greeted with a little introduction and help.
  • Give the required input to download the comics in .jpg format.
  • You will also be prompted to specify a file path for downloading the comic(s).
  • If no directory is specified, the comics will be downloaded to the directory of the script
