Yes, one can create Linux/Unix "exe" files. Unix has "exe" files, too. E.g. /bin/ls is an "exe" file.little bit confused. To me, it seems so that it is possible that i can create linux "exe" files on a windows machine using pyinstaller. Am i right? If not please correct me. In my thoughts there are no "exe" files for linux? What the clue i miss?
You are right, on Unix one seldom needs to build "exe"s for simple scripts, as the shell reads the shebang line ("#!", <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shebang_%28Unix%29>) at the top of a script and starts the Python interpreter (or perl, ruby, you name it). So often its enough to simply deliver an archive containing everything. But there may be reasons to not deliver an archive, but a complete, self-contained "exe".
