Can
you or someone give me very specific instructions as to how to create
an _.EXE file from a _.PY file.
I have spent a lot of time looking through all 7 sections of FAQ's
at http://www.python.org/doc/faq/ and many other sights.
I have also gone to http://starship.python.net/crew/theller/py2exe/ and tried to use the general
comments there.
I did download and install *win-py2.4.exe . This installed
successfully as far as I can see. There were no error messages
and REMOVEPY2EXE.EXE was created in my PYTHON24
folder.
The machine I am running, is running XP professional, 2002. It has
a Pentiuum(R) 4, 1.8 Ghz CPU. The drive has 37 GB free.
I am by no means a computer expert but I am not illiterate either. I
have used MS Quick Basic for many years. In the past I have also used
APL and Fortran on various machines over the years. I just am not
familiar enough with Python and have not been able to find the detailed
data I need to do what I want. Up to a month ago I had never heard of
Python and I badly need the ability to make *.PY programs
files run as *.EXE files.
Can you or someone supply the very specific instructions to do this? I
would also be perfectly willing to arrange with someone to call them at
their convenience and do it over the phone and compensate the person
for their effort and time.
I sincerely and very much appreciate anyone's response and help! Thank
you!
Jack Anema.

Try using py2exe it works pretty well for compiling .py into a portable
.exe distribution.
