[Distutils] eggs in Python path

The eggs quick guide http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/PythonEggs#using-eggs says that eggs can be installed by just putting them on sys.path. This doesn't seem to be enough though. A .pth file seem to also be necessary. Am I missing something? Or is the documentation incorrect? Jim -- Jim Fulton mailto:jim@zope.com Python Powered!
