I have a friend who is a talented shell script writer. He is a linux guru since several years.
He asked me if "if __name__=='main':" is state of the art if you want to translate a shell script to python. I started to stutter and did not know how to reply. I use Python since several years and I use console_script in entry_points of setup.py. I am very unsure if this is the right way if you want to teach a new comers the joy of python. In the current context we want to translate a bunch of shell scripts to python scripts. What do you think?
