I don't understand -- you can install multiple scripts with a single setup.py. Do you want finer-grained control over which are installed by a single invocation of setup.py? In that case, you should re-read the distutils docs about sub-classing portions of the setup process. The documentation for the Python 2.4.2 distribution is more complete than in 2.3.5. dsc -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
