I can vouch for standaloneBuilder, as that's one of my little babies! :-)

It's a tool to help with converting PythonCard apps into full-blown Windows 
executables - take a look in tools\standaloneBuilder\doc for details and 
screenshots.

I've just recently checked an updated version into CVS, and I'll be posting a 
snapshot of the code as it stands on my website here:

http://www.linux2000.com/pm.html

This page has screenshots which show how the user interface has been updated 
since the previous version.

Thanks for all the feedback - I think the main thing that it shows is that 
(like most software projects unfortunately) PythonCard really needs some long 
hard work on the documentation. Somehow it's always more fun to work on the 
code than the docs, though...
