How to Make .exe? - Xzotic - 10-24-2010
Well, I've used Python for awhile doing my own thing, never needed to make a .exe... But now I do . Ive downloaded py2exe. Except I have no idea how to use it, Ive read some other tutorials, but they really dont make any sense to me, could anyone explain how.
Thanks a lot!

It's not an issue on a development machine. But your audience is very limited if you're writing a script that may be used by others. Not many people (in the grand scheme of PC users) have Python installed. By using py2exe a Python script can be converted into a standalone executable that doesn't require Python to be present on the user's PC.
Xzotic, I know someone mentioned the help documents, but have you read the tutorial on the py2exe web site? And if so exactly where are you getting hung up?

Ok, I think I figured it out, except the fact that it keeps saying I dont have py2exe when I try to import it, I downloaded and installed it, not sure whats up with it really.
"C:\Tutorial>python setup.py install"
It tells me to do that? I'm not sure where I would do that at. Because appererntly I dont have py2exe installed correctly because I cannot import it.
I Get this error.. and Ive installed py2exe twice now.
ImportError: No module named py2exe
Heres the other Deal... Im running Python 3.1, but Py2exe is only up to 2.5 for me.. Does that mean I have to downgrade my Python Version?
