Dear experts,
I need to install some scripts for current user (to skip sudo, UAC popups and
whatever).
So I make a sdist and use python -m pip install --user
This should work for either Python 2 or 3.
On Linux, pip installs the scripts into ~/.local/bin ; users are instructed to

I am a Python beginner but would like to contribute $0.02 in absence of

Thank you Paul and Eryk for your replies.
My goal is definitely to expose the Python to my user
