HKEY_* and Reg* names once, rather than having near-duplicate code
in the two import attempts.
Also dropped the leading underscore on all the imported symbols,
as it's not appropriate (they're not local to this module).
The Setup.in entry is sort of a lie; it links with -lexpat, but
Expat's Makefile doesn't actually build a libexpat.a. I'll send
Expat's author a patch to do that; if he doesn't accept it, this
rule will have to list Expat's object files (ick!), or have a
comment explaining how to build a .a file.
* build to "Debug" or "Release" temp directory
* put linker turds (.lib and .exp files) in the build temp directory
* tack on "_d" to extensions built with debugging
* added 'get_ext_libname()' help in putting linker turds to temp dir
Also, moved the code that simplifies None to empty list for a bunch
of options to 'finalize_options()' instead of 'run()'.
None in an argument list *terminates* the argument list: further
arguments are *ignored*. This isn't kosher, but too much code relies
on it, implicitly. For example, IDLE was pretty broken.
Simplified 'Command.get_peer_option()' a tad -- just call 'find_peer()'
to get the peer command object.
Updated 'Command.copy_file()' to take a 'link' parameter, just like
'util.copy_file()' does now.
Added 'Command.make_archive()' to wrap 'util.make_archive()'.
Changes to 'copy_file()':
* added support for making hard links and symlinks
* noted that it silently clobbers existing files when copying, but
blows up if destination exists when linking -- hmmm...
* error message tweak
Added 'base_name' parameter to 'make_tarball()' and 'make_zipfile()'.
Added 'make_archive()' -- wrapper around 'make_tarball()' or
'make_zipfile()' to take care of the archive "root directory".
the command that actually creates "dumb" binary distributions, ie.
tarballs and zip files that you just unpack under <prefix> or <exec-prefix>.
Very limited, but it's a start.
Initial revision is pretty limited; it only knows how to generate "dumb"
binary distributions, i.e. a tarball on Unix and a zip file on Windows.
Also, due to limitations in the installation code, it only knows how to
distribute Python library code. But hey, it's a start.
provided by Distribution.
Cosmetic and error message tweaks.
Simplified 'make_release_tree()':
* extracted 'distutils.util.create_tree()'
* don't have to do hard-linking ourselves -- it's now handled by
'distutils.util.copy_file()' (although the detection of
whether hard linking is available still needs to be factored out)
Removed 'make_tarball()' and 'make_zipfile()' entirely -- their role
is now amply filled by 'distutils.util.make_archive()'.
Simplified 'make_distribution()':
* use Distribution's new 'get_full_name()' method
* use 'make_archive()' instead of if/elif/.../else on the archive format
Reformatted for 8-space tabs and fitted into 80-char lines by GvR.

* the Win32 version now accepts the same args as the Unix version.
The win32 specific "tag" param is now optional. The end result is
that the exact same test suite runs on Windows (definately a worthy
goal!).
* I changed the error object. All occurences of the error, except
for 1, corresponds to an underlying OS error. This one was changed
to a ValueError (a better error for that condition), and the module
error object is now simply EnvironmentError. All win32 error
routines now call the new Windows specific error handler.
can't remember who. :-) Changes:
- Owner name+email made generic instead of GvR
- Support for Windows NT (running from a .bat file)
- DOcument <HTML>...</HTML> tags
