Peggy is a thin layer on top of setuptools and PyGtk. It doesn't do anything very fancy, but it can save you from reading some of the documentation for setuptools and PyGtk.
PIP(1)PIP(1)NAME
pip - install Python packages
SYNOPSIS
pip [command] [options]
DESCRIPTION
pip is an alternative Python package installer. It performs the same basic job as easy_install, but with some extra features. It can work
with version control repositories (currently only Git, Mercurial, and Bazaar repositories), logs output extensively, and prevents partial
installs by downloading all requirements before starting installation.
It has some disadvantages when compared to easy_install. It does not use egg files, although it does preserve egg metadata. Some setuptools
features are not yet supported, and some custom setup.py features won't work.
