Setupscript doesn't install the go script in the path

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The setup.py should declare the scripts, eg: scripts=['src/lib/go.py']

See http://docs.python.org/distutils/setupscript.html#installing-scripts

$ pypm install go
$ pypm f go
/Users/sridharr/.local/lib 
/Users/sridharr/.local/lib/python2.6 
/Users/sridharr/.local/lib/python2.6/site-packages 
/Users/sridharr/.local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/go-1.2.1-py2.6.egg-info 
/Users/sridharr/.local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/go.py

So I ran the following:

$ python -m go

Then go asked if it wants me to add go bash function to ~/.profile. Maybe this 
should be specified in the install notes .. that one should run go initially as 
"python -m go". 

But having a script is probably a little easier (as long as the BATCH/bash 
function 
will override the go script)

Basically 'pypm install go' doesn't do the easy thing

.. or 'pip install go' or 'easy_install go' .. or even 'python setup.py 
install', I believe. You could use 
setuptools/Distribute to implement scripts. The advantage is that there will be 
a nice .exe wrapper on Windows. 
The script can be named go-setup in order to avoid name clash with the actual 
go shell/batch function.

Here's a patch to add a `go-setup' script:

(requires the previous commit for setuptools)
