This is 100% avoidable. Here is an example of a standalone Windows executable which is written in Python using PyQt: http://ankisrs.net/ After installation it is a couple dozen megabytes, and this is a full-featured application that does a bunch of stuff including audio/video playback, HTML rendering, network connectivity, sqlite data storage, etc. etc. I'm not sure exactly how it is done but I assume it uses some combination of py2exe and Qt tools. (Taking a look in the source code should prove enlightening: http://github.com/dae/ankiqt ). After installation there are some Qt-named DLL files sitting in the program's directory. You absolutely do not need the Qt SDK, or a copy of Python, or a copy of PyQt to run such an application. To develop the application is a different story of course. -Keshav ---- Join us in #sagemath on irc.freenode.net ! -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
