Doesn't py2exe works under wine ? I have had great success building windows installers on linux through wine (although not with py2exe), cheers, David -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Of course that works, a virtual windows machine is just a windows machine ;-). Also that you can't do a "cross compilation" sounds to me more a limitation of the tool than a true impossibility. -- John Bokma j3b Hacking & Hiking in Mexico - http://johnbokma.com/ http://castleamber.com/ - Perl & Python Development -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

But if he were to have a Windows computer, he could generate a standalone executable from a Python program using one of the following tools: py2exe: http://www.py2exe.org/ PyInstaller: http://www.pyinstaller.org/ But one can't generate such a standalone executable for a different operating system from that which one's computer runs.
