Leaving aside all other arguments of whether or not you should allow your users to see your source code ... The simplest method to compile python is to use Pyrex: http://www.google.com.au/search?q=pyrex&btnI It's almost-compatible syntax-wise with Python 2.2 (no augmented assignment, no nesting classes, and classmethods don't appear to work - probably static methods too). Then you just have a single script which calls your first main module, and everything else is in a shared library (.so, .pyd). It's quite nice to be able to have identical source, copy the source tree, rename files appropriately and be able to build using Pyrex (with an appropriate setup.py).
