I am going to create a new thread for this. It doesn't belong in the Last Lecture.

Just doing: pyinstaller --debug launchLeo.py from the leo-editor folder does a lengthy analysis (several minutes) of all of Leo's dependencies and creates the folder leo-editor/dist. On Windows, this folder contains launchLeo.exe, folders for all needed modules and all required .dll and .pyd files. Pyinstaller should work much the same on Linux and MacOs. At present, running launchLeo.exe fails, but that's a nit ;-) When I launch launchLeo.exe from a console I can see python tracebacks. At present I don't understand the tracebacks, but I suspect that the default manifest launchLeo.spec not include all needed files, such as .leo files and icons. That shouldn't be too hard to remedy. pyinstaller looks well worth the effort required to get working. The docs look excellent and there is a discussion group. Once the folder-oriented distro is debugged, it will be easier to create the single-executable-file distro, which is also a .exe file. This is exciting.
