Description-en: built-package format for Python
A wheel is a ZIP-format archive with a specially formatted filename and the
`.whl` extension. It is designed to contain all the files for a PEP 376
compatible install in a way that is very close to the on-disk format.
.
The wheel project provides a `bdist_wheel` command for setuptools. Wheel
files can be installed with `pip`.
.
These are the command line scripts and manpages.
