Fix ``#!`` parsing problems in Windows ``.exe`` script wrappers, when there

2007-01-24T21:00:55+00:00

was whitespace inside a quoted argument or at the end of the ``#!`` line

Overhauled Windows script wrapping to support ``bdist_wininst`` better.

2006-12-29T17:43:39+00:00

Scripts installed with ``bdist_wininst`` will always use ``#!python.exe`` or
``#!pythonw.exe`` as the executable name (even when built on non-Windows
platforms!), and the wrappers will look for the executable in the script's
parent directory (which should find the right version of Python).

Added quoting of script arguments and extended the quoting logic to

2006-08-22T19:58:05+00:00

handle embedded quotes.

Added support for passing a single argument on the shebang line to
pass things like -O and -i.

Fixed bug in handling trailing whitespace in Python command.

Quote arguments to python.exe (including python's path) to avoid

2005-11-17T03:01:33+00:00

problems when Python (or a script) is installed in a directory

Fix problem with Windows console scripts conflicting with module names,

2005-10-16T20:45:30+00:00

thereby confusing the import process.  Scripts are now generated with a
suffix of the form '-script.py' to avoid conflicts.  (The .exe's are still
generated without the '-script' part, so you don't have to type it.)
Thanks to Matthew R. Scott for reporting the problem.

"normal" #! wrappers for GUI scripts on other platforms.

Added support to solve the infamous "we want .py on Windows, no

2005-09-17T01:13:02+00:00

extension elsewhere" problem, while also bypassing the need for PATHEXT
on Windows, and in fact the need to even write script files at all, for
any platform.  Instead, you define "entry points" in your setup script,
in this case the names of the scripts you want (without extensions) and
the functions that should be imported and run to implement the scripts.
Setuptools will then generate platform-appropriate script files at
install time, including an .exe wrapper when installing on Windows.
