If changing the command line in incompatible ways is acceptable, what do you think of scrapping the commands (at the UI level only) altogether ? This would be more consistent and easier to deal for the user, and easier to implement as well: python setup.py configure --option1 --option2=value2 .... python setup.py build python setup.py install We could then make this work: python setup.py install (would run both build and configure implicitly). Making all finalized options available at the build stage would then be easier.
