Certainly stuff like that is becoming fairly > common for installers these days. Hmm, make that ZIP-ball (we have no .tar support in the standard lib, only ZIP-file support). Also, the setup.py will have to check whether it has to grab a level 0 compression ZIP file or a level 9 one. Nothing which cannot be done, of course... net installers are quite common these days (see e.g. Mozilla, IE and others), so people are probably quite used to them already. And we can always provide a full install download as well. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg CEO eGenix.com Software GmbH ______________________________________________________________________ Company & Consulting: http://www.egenix.com/ Python Software: http://www.egenix.com/files/python/
