It might be worth noting that easy_install.py -f . (note the period,
i.e. current directory) works.  -f can use local paths as well as urls. 

At work we have MS Proxy (NTLM auth) and McAfee WebShield, so
downloading anything is a royal pain.  I really like setuptools, but
having a download and local install capability is critical in my work
environment.

That said, I had to write a script to get setuptools installed from a
local egg.

I will be working on using this knowledge with Inno Setup to make a nice
and friendly stand-alone windows installer for my app.  It could be used
for TG too.

Ian, if you are reading this, I'd really love to hear your thoughts on
the use of setuptools (and getting setuptools initially installed)
without needing a network connection.  (Admittedly I am not well versed
in eggs as TG is my first real exposure to them. :-)

Hope this helps,
Krys
