Summary: docutils clarification request for "rest"
Initial Comment:
>From the definition of long_description:
*'long string'*
Multiple lines of plain text in reStructuredText format (see
http://docutils.sf.net/).
in:
http://docs.python.org/dist/meta-data.html
I incorrectly concluded that the the bdist_wininst installer would provide
visual markup for long_description specified in restructured text.
According to Thomas Heller, that is not the case.
I wish to suggest adding this clarification to the distutils documentation
perhaps in one or both of the following documents:
http://docs.python.org/dist/postinstallation-script.html
http://docs.python.org/dist/meta-data.html
Thanks,
-- jv

I'm not quite sure what the problem is. What kind of "visual markup" did
you expect?
