Hi, William, I'm putting this patch in, but I'm afraid you lose some functionality along with it. In particular, with twill 0.8.4, I started using the 'entry_point' option of setuptools.setup to specify 'twill-sh'. This patch to use distutils will fail to upgrade twill-sh in your current installation, I think. I switched to the 'entry_point' method in the hopes that this will work better under Windows than the old 'scripts' mechanism did. It may well not work out that way -- I already have another e-mail from someone who had some problems getting 'twill-sh' to work under 0.8.4 ;). If I get enough complaints, I'll switch back to using 'scripts'. cheers, --titus _______________________________________________ twill mailing list [email protected] http://lists.idyll.org/listinfo/twill
