What is it

I use a short Windows Batch File to "automate" Py2EXE

How it works:

(About Compression see BetterCompression under 7ZIP and UPX)

Instruction

I use it under Win XP... It should also run under NT and 2000, but i don't know...

You must change the Path to the Apps in the Batch-File!!!

The BatchFile is very flexible, it uses its own file name to locate the Python Script!
You must rename it to exactly the same name like the script to compile. Example:

To change the content of the Py2EXE-Setup-File, you must change the :MakeSetupFile section in the BatchFile

flexible?
So you can quick use the Batch File with other Python script, yust copy and rename it!

::Set personal Path to the Apps:

:: Compress=0 - Don't CompressFiles
