Hi folks... I've been trying to figure out a good way to bundle together a py2exe 'dist' directory into a single-file executable. A lot of people have suggested NSIS as a solution, but I've got an easier one: winrar. Winrar lets you create a self-extracting executable that can (1) extract to a temporary location, (2) run a program within the temp folder, and (3) delete the temp folder when the program exits. It also lets you suppress all winrar-specific output, so the process is entirely transparent to the user. --Steve Stephen Gross Case Western School of Medicine Cleveland, OH "By Grabthar's hammer, by the sons of Worvan, you shall be avenged." - Dr. Lazarus |
