I just installed it on my mac by doing $ sudo pip install httpie

It was not too tricky

Sure, but i dislike installing other tools like pip just for a single tool.

As a python dev, I use pip all the time. My first thought was, "nice, just use pip." I appreciate your comment because it helps remind me that people approach problems from different frames of mind.
