wheel
=====

This is a command line tool for manipulating Python wheel files, as defined in
`PEP 427`_. It contains the following functionality:

* Convert ``.egg`` archives into ``.whl``
* Unpack wheel archives
* Repack wheel archives
* Add or remove tags in existing wheel archives

.. _PEP 427: https://peps.python.org/pep-0427/

Historical note
---------------

This project used to contain the implementation of the setuptools_ ``bdist_wheel``
command, but as of setuptools v70.1, it no longer needs ``wheel`` installed for that to
work. Thus, you should install this **only** if you intend to use the ``wheel`` command
line tool!

Documentation
-------------

The documentation_ can be found on Read The Docs.
