I'm personally not to picky... I just want the tool to work, and like I said, for some reason I'm having trouble running very simple scripts from py2exe, which I dont seem to have while using pyInstaller. I've even written a drag and drop front-end for it (had one for py2exe too) to make using it stupidly easy.
It really does boggle my mind how people can be so wierd when asked to run something that isn't a .exe... Guess its a side-effect of the windows generation. On 11/16/06, Tim Golden <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

One option which could help there -- although your other considerations might outweigh it -- is Fredrik Lundh's exemaker: http://effbot.org/zone/exemaker.htm It doesn't bundle up Python in the way that py2exe does: you still need to have python on the target machine. But it does provide an .exe of your program (which, behind the scenes, loads up the Python dll in the same way that the python.exe would have done in the first place). Thst way, the .exe-comfortable user sees a .exe without the extra work of py2exe/installer etc. TJG ________________________________________________________________________ This e-mail has been scanned for all viruses by Star.
