[Scons-users] Bootstrap-scons: a zero-dependency script for bootstrapping SCons and Python on Windows

[Bill Deegan]

I'm not sure how hard it is to download python and then pip install scons?
Are you using pip to install scons if not installed?
Are you createing a virtualenv or installing it in the python installl/?
