= Python applications =

Python applications can be run using [http://www.py2exe.org/ py2exe] (Windows only).

Alternatively, you can use the [PyMw PyMW master/work framework], which is cross platform.

== Using Py2Exe ==
[http://www.py2exe.org/ py2exe] allows you to make a
standalone executable that envelops both the Python executable, and
precompiled bytecode for your program.
It is Windows-only.

I converted a python .py script into three
files, a main executable, the C-run time dll msvcrt71.dll, and a third
executable that is seemingly needed on Win9x.
This runs on a system with no
Python otherwise on it, with no path or whatever adjustments.

A Python binding of the BOINC API is described
