Can someone walk me through like the idiot I feel right now why
having "develop = ." results in src/zc/ngi/ ending up on the python
path?
It doesn't. It results, in the case of zc.ngi, in src being on the
Python path.
The develop option takes one or more paths, separated by spaces. :)
Each path should point to a setup script or to a directory containing
one. Each setup script is run in "develop" mode creating a "develop"
egg which is just a file containing the path to a project's sourc
directory. This directory is added to the path. Note that the
project's source directory is controlled by the setup script. It need
not be a src subdirectory of a project.
