Does it really require explanation? 2) Run it as a shell script (e.g. ``sh ./setuptools-0.6c4-py2.4.egg``). Setuptools will install itself using the matching version of Python (e.g. ``python2.4``), and will place the ``easy_install`` executable in the default location for installing Python scripts. -bob _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
