Just to perhaps clarify one thing - the use of the python.org Python is only an installation issue for the development machine. py2app will include the relevant portions of the python.org framework within your application bundle, so it's not a requirement for any of your users. They'll still just see a single standalone application, which just happens to have no dependencies on their system's python. This can simplify things somewhat on the development machine too, since you can use the python.org python installation (independent from the OS version) on that machine for installing other third-party packages you may need, again without affecting the system python. Those packages also get included in the final app bundle by py2app. -- David _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/Pythonmac-SIG
