Get easy_install with Python2.6 on Windows
Egg - it's not that easy
If you unzip the egg-File you realize that there's a /bin/sh script waiting for you. Very well... but I do not remember Windows having this kind of interpreter. So here's the solution: we bootstrap it and make a oneliner:
After downloading the egg somewhere into your Python's nest run this with your paths:
- C:\Python26\eggs#66cc66;">>C:\python26\python.exe -c
- #483d8b;">"import sys;
- #483d8b;">sys.path.insert(0, 'C:/Python26/eggs/setuptools-0.6c9-py2.6.egg');
- #483d8b;">from setuptools.command.easy_install import bootstrap; sys.exit(bootstrap())"
Solves the issues for 2.6 on Windows. Nevertheless most people think of cygwin now... bad idea. ;)
