You need to copy both the "share" and "lib" dirs from the enchant 
site-packages directory into the dir of the exe.  "share" contains the 
dictionaries themselves, while "lib" contains the enchant myspell plugin.

 From memory, you can use the distutils "data_files" option to achieve 
this, or py2exe may have another way of specifying extra files to 
include...it's been a long time since I py2exe'd anything.

Please let me know if this doesnt work for you, and I'll have another look.


   Cheers,
