The mac/win difference is with the starting dot because it's impossible
under windows to name a file under the directory browser UI that starts
with a ".". You have to be a power-user to do so. (pydistutils.cfg
versus .pydistutils.cfg)
Now for pydistutils.cfg vs distutils.cfg I don't know why it's like
that. It should be "distutils.cfg" everywhere imho. Even if the global
and local one are eventually merged. I'll launch a thread about it on
distutils-sig.
Next, setup.cfg is for the current directory because this how you
operate with packages that have setup.py+setup.cfg files : you chdir in
the directory then run a distutils command.
Last, under windows, it should use os.path.expanduser('~') instead of
looking for a HOME variable. this will be fix in any case. |
