     15     """Abstract base class for defining command classes, the "worker bees"
     16     of the Distutils.  A useful analogy for command classes is to think of
     17     them as subroutines with local variables called "options".  The options
     18     are "declared" in 'initialize_options()' and "defined" (given their
     19     final values, aka "finalized") in 'finalize_options()', both of which
     20     must be defined by every command class.  The distinction between the
     21     two is necessary because option values might come from the outside
     22     world (command line, config file, ...), and any options dependent on
     23     other options must be computed *after* these outside influences have
     24     been processed -- hence 'finalize_options()'.  The "body" of the
     25     subroutine, where it does all its work based on the values of its
     26     options, is the 'run()' method, which must also be implemented by every
     27     command class.

     32     # "install_headers", etc.  The parent of a family of commands
     33     # defines 'sub_commands' as a class attribute; it's a list of
     34     #    (command_name : string, predicate : unbound_method | string | None)
