OK, no problem, but isn't it very non-portable?
I don't see why not. It should work on any system
that has Python3 installed, at least that is my
understanding. I'm sure someone will correct me
if I'm wrong.
OTOH if you want in insure 100% portability with any
script, you can use pyinstaller.
To install for Python2:
pip install pyinstaller
For Python3:
pip3 install pyinstaller
Out of interest (as someone who grew up on the great 1.5.7 ;)) - is
there a definitive resource that explains all of the various packaging
and installation options that exist for Python modules these days (both
for an author and a user)?
A lot of Linux distributions have Python-related packages (other than
the language itself) which can be installed using the system installer.
Then there's "pip", which is an installer which is installed using the
system installer.
Now, apparently, there's "pyinstaller" which can be installed using the
"pip" installer!
I'd like to understand the differences and how this all fits together.
Thanks, E.
