    Installing a python program without full distribution - minimal requirements...

    Hi,

    I need to add a python program (web updater+extras) with a window application.
    The same thing as the Online Lord of the Ring game (http://lotrtcg.decipher.com/).
    When you install their application, it create a subdirectory with very few python files*.dll,*.py d,*.pyc.:

    _socket.pyd
    _sre.pyd
    _tkinter.pyd
    (laucher.pyc)
    (lotrotcglauche r.exe)
    python22.dll
    PyWinTypes22.dl l
    tcl83.dll
    tk83.dll
    win32api.pyd
    xlib.pyd
    _MEI\...

    Context: I want to add some python capabilities to my application, but not force the user to install the full python distro.
    Questions:
    1- Are these files sufficient? (Too simple to be true!)
    2- Is their some registry/path entries do perform to setup a minimal python runtime?

    Other ideas, examples of how to do it in a simple way?

    Thanks
    AL

    Take a look at http://py2exe.sourceforge.net/

      ==========
      Google for py2exe or McMillan Installer. These utilities will zip your
      Python code plus these needed dll's, etc. into a free-standing .EXE file.
