It should also be possible to temper with the zipimport module to allow a 'scrambled' zip file. That makes it harder for users to access the code by unpacking the zip file. py2exe will collect pyc files into a single zip file and import that. It does not need a driver script because it embeds the Python interpreter in an executable. Yet another option is to compile the Python code with Cython and distribute everything as compiled pyd files. Sturla -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
