That is exactly what py2app does by default if you run py2app with the system python. If you run py2app with a non-system python then that python is bundled with the application. Note that different versions of MacOS X have different versions of system python. So if your application needs any 3rd party packages then including python with the app will allow it work with more versions of MacOS X. -- Russell -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
