> F:\mywork\build_tools>Scripts\python.exe setup.py install -vvv  [this is how
> i executed the setup.py from virtual python]

> After running the above installer, as per my understanding after the

> The above said scenario is working fine with Linux machine when i tried the

> Entry point console script is not listing/showing under "Scripts" directory.

> Please any one suggest fix or explain me the problem.
