New submission from Ronald Oussoren <ronaldousso...@mac.com>:
The pysetup3 command gives a fairly unfriendly error message with python
traceback when you specify an unknown command:
pysetup3 instal
Unrecognized action "instal"
Traceback (most recent call last):
File
"/Library/Frameworks/PythonDev.framework/Versions/3.3/lib/python3.3/packaging/run.py",
line 647, in main
dispatcher = Dispatcher(args)
File
"/Library/Frameworks/PythonDev.framework/Versions/3.3/lib/python3.3/packaging/run.py",
line 401, in __init__
raise PackagingArgError(msg)
packaging.errors.PackagingArgError: Unrecognized action "instal"
The traceback is not useful for the user of the script and should therefore not
be shown.
BTW. It would also be nice if 'pysetup3 help' would give the same output as
'pysetup3 --help', similar to how 'hg help' behaves.
