Briefly: create a Distribution instance; find and parse config files; parse the command line; run each Distutils command found there, customized by the options supplied to 'setup()' (as keyword arguments), in config files, and on the command line. The Distribution instance might be an instance of a class supplied via the 'distclass' keyword argument to 'setup'; if no such class is supplied, then the Distribution class (in dist.py) is instantiated. All other arguments to 'setup' (except for 'cmdclass') are used to set attributes of the Distribution instance. The 'cmdclass' argument, if supplied, is a dictionary mapping command names to command classes. Each command encountered on the command line will be turned into a command class, which is in turn instantiated; any class found in 'cmdclass' is used in place of the default, which is (for command 'foo_bar') class 'foo_bar' in module 'distutils.command.foo_bar'. The command class must provide a 'user_options' attribute which is a list of option specifiers for 'distutils.fancy_getopt'. Any command-line options between the current and the next command are used to set attributes of the current command object. When the entire command-line has been successfully parsed, calls the 'run()' method on each command object in turn. This method will be driven entirely by the Distribution object (which each command object has a reference to, thanks to its constructor), and the command-specific options that became attributes of each command object.
