The .pyc /only/ contains the code for the .py file it was generated from; it does /not/ contain the code for any imported libraries. > Anyone know how to make program lib independent , something > called embedded into one file only ? py2exe (http://www.py2exe.org/) is the usual tool for this on Windows. It takes a Python program and bundles it together with the Python executable and any imported libraries to yield a standalone .exe Cheers, Chris -- I have a blog: http://blog.rebertia.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
