Martin Dengler added the comment: Ok, you're right about my link #2; I meant to include this link (a reply to the link I actually included):
https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2012-March/118047.html ...in which I think the pertinent quote is: "For direct execution, the proposal trades cross-version inconsistencies for cross-platform consistency. When we *already have* a consistent cross-platform mechanism in -m, the inevitable disruption involved in changing the Windows layout seems very hard to justify." I'll try to whip up a patch for http://bugs.python.org/issue14302#msg156410 sub-proposal #2: 2. Change 'Scripts' to 'bin' ...that uses a directory junction to mitigate the inconsistency concern (windows local admin rights / SeCreateSymbolicLinkPrivilege should not be an issue as mklink /j does not require either), unless someone beats me to it. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14302> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
