It's not a ToscaWidgets standalone application but a ToscaWidgets egg. This egg can be the listed in the "install_requires" of any application that needs it for easier deployment. It is really only useful to create a widget egg if you plan to distribute it or want to reuse it easily in multiple apps, for "one-shot" widgets you can just declare them inside a module inside your app's package. BTW, I've found PasteScript useful for much more than "scaffolding" Pylons or TG applications (or widget eggs). In a former job we used it extensively to script the installation, via a web control panel, of PHP applications (among others).
