Re: [Distutils] Wheels and console script entry point wrappers (Was: Replacing pip.exe with a Python script)

Yes, Nick pointed me at that part of the PEP. Nobody's doing that at the moment, and exes are being added to the wheels at wheel build time, which is also wrong.

Not true for distlib - it doesn't add .exe wrappers to wheels at build time :-) It adds them to the target directory when installing under Windows. (You can also choose not to install any wrappers.) Regards, Vinay Sajip
