Summary: unittest's main don't handle TestSuite in command line

Initial Comment:
When using unittest's "main" it fails if in the command

line a name of TestSuite class is given.



Suppose ts.py is:

----

#!/usr/bin/env python



from unittest import TestCase, makeSuite, main



class T(TestCase):

    def test_moo(self):

        self.fail()





test_suite = makeSuite(T, "test_")



if __name__ == "__main__":

    main()

----



Then running "ts.py test_suite" will fail.



Attached is a patch for unittest.py



Miki
