I think this should be the default. I am a rookie in python, setup.py in
particular, but I cannot see how you can write portable setup scripts
without this.
I agree that the batch script can be improved. Here is how ruby gems do it:
@ECHO OFF
IF NOT "
Benny Bach added the comment:
If you have to name the script with a .bat extension it is not portable
to other platforms or did I misunderstand something?
The point of generating the bat file is to be able to use the same
script on all platforms
Benny Bach added the comment:
Ok - I see what you mean. I can't see any problems with it. However
generating a separate bat file has the advantage that you can still
invoke the original script by calling python explicitly.
