If you have searched everywhere then it isn't in the docs. You can probably learn a lot about py2exe when you try out and study the supplied samples; they are in the Lib\site-packages\py2exe\samples subdirectories. The next step would be to consult the source code ;-) The current maintainer of pyexe, Jimmy Retzlaff, seems to have disappeared from the net as it seems; I hope he is well. So, the current state of py2exe itself and the documentation is not so good; OTOH there is a wiki on www.py2exe.org where anyone can contribute tips tricks and docs.
