distutils question

Hi.

I've written a script and supporting package that I'd like people to be
able to install with distutils. I've been through the "Distributing Python
Modules" documentation and have a setup.py file that works fine with the
package.

I haven't been able to work out if it's possible to get distutils to
install a script into a sensible place though (e.g. /usr/local/bin on
UNIX, c:\Program Files\foo\foo.py on Windows).

Is it? If not, what do people normally use?

Thanks.
