You don't seem to get what I'm saying! By "at least a good one", I mean a good compiler even if it's open source! I just need something to compile all the source preqrequisites, as apposed to all these damned installation files.

I know there is py2exe but the exact problem is no one I know can get it to work...

I've never had a problem using py2exe with many custom modules and wxPython. Care to elaborate on that, instead of asking for a source-obfuscator?

Okay cool, then anytime I need to compile can I send to you?

Cerulean · Jul 23rd, 2005, 8:37 AM

No, you can read the ample documentation available on using py2exe and compile yourself.

I already did! I've been reading posts and trying many many times. But py2exe simply does not work for me! The program is corrupt or something! I've tried reinstalling, Py2exe doesn't work.

Post exactly what you tried to do to get it to work, what kind of errors you got, etc.

Sane · Jul 23rd, 2005, 4:14 PM

No, I know it's no issue of how I'm doing it.

Pygame doesn't work on my computer, IDLE doesn't work on my computer, and sometimes Python doesn't even work on my computer. I may decide to try on my laptop at a later time, but for now I know that py2exe doesn't work on my computer either.

But py2exe doesn't work on my friend's computer either. So I still think there is a problem with py2exe itself.

Again, i'm ruling that out because i've never had a problem with it, and a fair few other Pythoners I know use it without problem.

Well, that's a little odder. Your path to Python doesn't contain spaces, does it? I mean, the Python executable is something like C:\Python24\bin\python.exe, not C:\Program Files\Python24\bin\python.exe, right?

Sane · Jul 23rd, 2005, 7:01 PM

Yep it's just C:\Python23\

Pygame only updates its screen if you right click a bar at the bottom of the screen, otherwise it just stays blank.

IDLE is just messed up because it sometimes thinks there is code there that doesn't even exist.

Python sometimes just won't open.
