manage.py

#!/usr/bin/env python
"""
Usage: manage.py {lms|cms} [--settings env] ...

Run django management commands. Because edx-platform contains multiple django projects,
the first argument specifies which project to run (cms [Studio] or lms [Learning Management System]).

By default, those systems run in with a settings file appropriate for development. However,
by passing the --settings flag, you can specify what environment specific settings file to use.

Any arguments not understood by this manage.py will be passed to django-admin.py
