Ah, tool names. Makepy is at least descriptive. My vote for worst tool names has to be the WiX project, Windows Installer XML, which lets you build Windows installer packages with a text editor and a command-line interface as God intended, instead of through an opaque GUI interface. Noticing that "WiX" rhymes with "wicks", their tools are called candle.exe, tallow.exe, lit.exe, light.exe, and dark.exe. The problem is that, although cute, those names give no clue as to what the tools do. "Candle" is basically the compiler and "light" is the linker, but I have to go to the documentation every time I need to use one. -- Tim Roberts, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
