Fred Drake d04573fef0 This allows additional commands to be provided for existing setup.py
scripts without modifying either the distutils installation or the
setup.py scripts of packages with which the new commands will be used.

Specifically, an option is added to distutils that allows additional
packages to be searched for command implementations in addition to
distutils.command.  The additional packages can be specified on the
command line or via the installation or personal configuration files
already loaded by distutils.

This closes SF patch #102241.

Fred Drake 0eb32a65b0 Add support for package data.
This is basically the support for package data from Phillip Eby's
setuptools package.  I've changed it only to fit it into the core
implementation rather than to live in subclasses, and added
documentation.

Thomas Heller 63b4dd33c9 Description of description was really confusing, and added some markup. 2002-12-12 19:35:00 +00:00
Thomas Heller 2c3bfc2a1a Raw documentation for the bdist_wininst postinstallation script.
People are already using it, so these docs are certainly better than
no docs at all. Markup is mostly missing and the layout is probably
ugly, but this can be fixed later.

Question: there are references to MS docs for the CSIDL_... constants
and the IShellLink interface. Are these pointers sufficient, or should
the MS docs reworded and repeated here?
