Are we talking about scripts for programmers to work with libraries that you publish (e.g. a command-line tool like cythonize), or applications for end users and IT staff? Virtual environments are primarily a solution for developers. For deployment to end users, take a look at what Paul Moore is doing with pylaunch and the embedded Python distribution: https://github.com/pfmoore/pylaunch https://docs.python.org/3/using/windows.html#embedded-distribution -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
