[http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/py2exe/py2exe-0.5.0.win32-py2.3.exe py2exe0.5.0] is the release of py2exe 0.5
[http://groups.google.de/groups?dq=&hl=de&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&threadm=1ebr001fkuq85al2i8c26ejceu8qvedmdb%404ax.com&prev=/groups%3Fhl%3Dde%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUTF-8%26oe%3DUTF-8%26group%3Dcomp.lang.python announced] by Thomas Heller in January 2004

As nearly usual in Open Source space, prerelases and beta are of the same quality as .02 releases from some commercial software developing companies - rather full functional, with small obstacles.

I had to "upgrade" also my knowledge about workarounds from py2exe 0.4

== Tips and Tricks ==
=== General ===
 * RunningSetup A detailed explanation how to run the setup script
 * EncodingsAgain Problem with encodings and when they are not found in a standalone executable
 * AddingConfigFiles How can you add arbitrary files to your Py2Exe-Setup?
 * PathModul Using Jason Jorendorffs python PathModul together with Py2Exe 0.5

== Learned things with py2exe 0.5 ==

[http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/py2exe/py2exe-0.5.0a5.win32-py2.3.exe py2exe0.5.0a5] is a prerelease [http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2003-November/193652.html announced] by Thomas Heller in November 2003.

As nearly usual in Open Source space, prerelases and beta are of the same quality as .02 releases from some commercial software develeoping companies - rather full functional, with small obstacles.

And py2exe 0.5.0a5 is really usable. Nonetheless, I had to "upgrade" also my knowledge about workarounds

=== py2exe and Quixote ===
Quixote is a python webserver which allows one to execute ptl files using ihooks. You can distribute your web application with medusa or twisted and hence
you can create a web application without IIS or Apache. I like to distribute my application with py2exe but I can not make py2exe setup script to recognize that x.ptl is a valid python files. Any idea how to do this?
=== py2exe and MatPlotLib
 * MatPlotLib - This is a Python module to provide Matlab-like plotting. It relies on configuration and font files installed in the PythonXX\share\matplotlib directory. Getting that information into the executable proved to require a SMALL modification to the matplotlib __init__.py file, and a little bit of special setup in the py2exe setup file.

py2exe

Py2Exe is an additional command to DistUtils, that creates standalone distributions for Win32.

Its home is here [http://starship.python.net/crew/theller/py2exe/] and on Sourceforge [http://sourceforge.net/projects/py2exe/]
