The "Distributing Python Modules" section of the Python 2.7 documentation is
the reference I have used.
The "Single extension module" example is essentially a "hello world" level
albeit lacking actual C extension source code. Once the right compiler is
installed, the distutils setup.py script you create (if correct) should be able
to build an installer or build and install the extension directly. Binary
installer info is in the "Creating Built Distributions" section.
There are more advance toolsets (e.g. setuptools, pip etc) that can be used,
but I've always found Distutils sufficient for my needs on Python 2.x (not
tried on Python 3.x yet).
Regards,
Andrew.
