However, after reflection, I think now that -m probably only really makes sense for stdlib modules, since projects using setuptools can now get all the benefits of -m without any of the drawbacks, without even writing any __name__=='__main__' code.
One thing you get with -m is that the module doesn't have to be on PATH. Where does setuptools install its wrapper executables? (The usual \Python24\Scripts directory isn't added to PATH by the installer).
I know, I'm nitpicking. Sorry :-)
No, you're not. IMO. setuptools installs them in PythonXY\Scripts. BTW: Shouldn't 'setup.py develop --uninstall' remove them again? It doesn't. And yet another question: How should my setup-script start? Is this the correct way: """ from ez_setup import use_setuptools use_setuptools() from distutils.core import setup """ I'm considering to finally use setuptools in the comtypes setup script. Thomas
