I am a fellow learner here, and will follow this thread with very much interest. Just in case you don't know this already: I am considering bytecode instead of executable with PyInstaller (http://www.pyinstaller.org/). I have not tinkered with it yet, though, so I do not have "first hand impressions" to share. From a review of the features: Main Pro's: - Compact resulting files. - Cross-platform. - Flexible licensing scheme. Main Con: - Support for 2.6 is not yet fully functional. Best luck!
