What version are you running?
1.0RC1


What's the URL of the page this enhancement relates to, if any?


Describe the enhancement and the motivation for it.

When installing using easy_install, postreview and rb-site are created in 
the python Scripts folder. These are formatted as unix shell scripts, so 
they are much good on Windows. The creation of a simple .bat file that 
proxies them seems to work fine.



What operating system are you using? What browser?
Windows 2003 Server

Please provide any additional information below.

Do you have suce file? I would love to have it. I think this is related to:

That seems related. I've attached my bat files (which are specific to Python25, so if 
you are using something else, you may have to edit them).

Also, they only accept up to 9 arguments, as I'm not sure what the escape sequence 
would be beyond that.

I'll have this fixed in RC3. I believe I now know what's needed to generate .exe
files for rb-site, but it will need some testing.

Fixed in r1967. A rb-site.exe will be provided in RC3, or in tonight's nightly.
