Ok - I copied the file to \pythonX.Y\lib and ran 'python -m setup' and
got an instant result. The program showed some screen stuff and so I
could see that it was called.

That felt very easy.

Thank you very much for pointing this out.

Actually I find there are less steps with this method than with the 
traditional way of having to change directory into the package 
directory and then running setup.py from there. After that delete
the directory and so forth.

I will keep working on it....

once again - many thanks
