Packaging scripts to be available automatically on install? #3

Closed chrahunt closed 7 years ago

There's several useful scripts in the root of the repository, like hachoir-urwid. It would be cool if these were packaged in such a way so that they would be available when hachoir is installed (as described here). Ideally:

  1. pip install hachoir3
  2. hachoir-urwid
  3. it works

When I created the Hachoir3 project a few months ago, I didn't want to make it public because it seems like Hachoir was still maintained. Sorry, but I don't know if Hachoir is maintained or not :-( Since someone asked, I just released the first alpha version of Hachoir3: the first public release of Hachoir which works (partially?) on Python 3.

hachoir-wx is probably fully broken.

hachoir-subfile is known to not work on Python 3: see the TODO list (TODO.rst), so it's not installed by setup.py.
