Description
Hi jaraco,
I think you're right to avoid hacking scripts to be supported.
But, for internal use, we need this feature to install current bin tools.
As you commented on #210, we prefer the first suggestion.
"•A new feature, an option that allows installing arbitrary binary files to the bin or Scripts directories"
Please help implement this feature, Thanks!
