Has anybody been able to do that? (I am cross-posting > these messages to the matploblib mailing list). For py2exe I have appended a setup script I use to bundle an application that includes matplotlib. I am no Windows expert and there are probably better ways to do it, but it does work. I have made no attempt to strip out extra stuff. (As for pyinstaller:a year or so ago I tried to use it to make a bundled *unix* version of my app. If that had worked I'd have considered trying to use it for Windows as well. But after a lot of experimenting I was never able to get anything even close to functional. Maybe it's better now.) -- Russell from distutils.core import setup import os import sys import matplotlib import py2exe # The following code is necessary for py2exe to find win32com.shell. # Solution from <http://starship.python.net/crew/theller/moin.cgi/WinShell> import win32com import py2exe.mf as modulefinder for pth in win32com.__path__[1:]: modulefinder.AddPackagePath("win32com", pth) for extra in ["win32com.shell"]: __import__(extra) m = sys.modules[extra] for pth in m.__path__[1:]: modulefinder.AddPackagePath(extra, pth) tuiRoot = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__))) roRoot = os.path.join(tuiRoot, "ROPackage") sys.path = [tuiRoot, roRoot] + sys.path import TUI.Version mainProg = os.path.join(tuiRoot, "runtui.py") NDataFilesToPrint = 0 # number of data files to print, per directory def addDataFiles(dataFiles, fromDir, toSubDir=None, inclHiddenDirs=False): """Find data files and format data for the data_files argument of setup.
