Just got into Python
Having got my MacBook Pro about a week or two weeks ago, I wanted to be able to program it. So I quit the heavenly environment of Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Beta 2 and decided to get going with some Python...
Anyways, I liked been able to create my .exe s in VS 2005/8 so can I create a .dmg in Python for my Mac? Can anyone please help? Thanks, Matt. Ireland |

You might want to look at Py2app. However, Python wasn't really designed to be made into exes or dmgs, so YMMV.

OK thanks.
YMMV?????? That's a term I'm not farmiliar with - sorry - what does it mean? So if I wanted to distribute one of my applications in Python over the internet how would I do it? Would I have to say here's the python file? EDIT: the py2app looks really complicated. Do you know anywhere I can get a nice, friendly thing taking one through how to install it. Thx.

As for creating .app files from Python scripts, I suggest taking a look at Platypus. |

Other than that, titaniumdecoy's suggestion is probably the way to go. |

I generally get about 22 facts per RTFM. Sometimes, though, the M is an SUV.
