63b4dd33c9 Description of description was really confusing, and added some markup. 2002-12-12 19:35:00 +00:00

2c3bfc2a1a Raw documentation for the bdist_wininst postinstallation script.
People are already using it, so these docs are certainly better than
no docs at all. Markup is mostly missing and the layout is probably
ugly, but this can be fixed later.

Question: there are references to MS docs for the CSIDL_... constants
and the IShellLink interface. Are these pointers sufficient, or should
the MS docs reworded and repeated here?

e61f365b0b Document the available command line flags for bdist_wininst, which are
avaliable in the Python 2.2 branch.

I've left out some flags which are more thought for debugging, if
someone needs them, he can always look at the output of --help.

I'm sure Fred will make some adjustments, so I'll only mark this as a
2.2 bugfix candidate.

There are more options available in the current CVS bdist_wininst,
I will document them after this is in.
