Freeze
Freeze is a "["pure Python"]" utility that ships with Python. You can use Freeze to compile executables for Unix systems.
If you want to write Python, but you don't know if your clients have Python installed, use this!
How to Use
Create a Python program, "hello.py"
1 print "Hello, World!"
Then find freeze.py on your system, and invoke it in a directory that you don't mind filling up with .c files:
$ python freeze.py hello.py

On my system, at least, the output is this:

Discussion
I may be doing something wrong; I don't think it should be including just about every module under the sun.
-- LionKimbro DateTime(2004-08-30T04:06:38Z)
The "problem" is pydoc. It includes Tkinter and some internet related modules for its gui. Just excluding pydoc with
python freeze.py -X pydoc hello.py
reduces the list of frozen modules for me to this:
freezing UserDict ... freezing __main__ ... freezing codecs ... freezing copy ... freezing copy_reg ... freezing distutils ... freezing distutils.dep_util ... freezing distutils.errors ... freezing distutils.log ... freezing distutils.spawn ... freezing distutils.util ... freezing dummy_thread ... freezing encodings ... freezing encodings.aliases ... freezing linecache ... freezing locale ... freezing macpath ... freezing ntpath ... freezing os ... freezing os2emxpath ... freezing popen2 ... freezing posixpath ... freezing py_compile ... freezing random ... freezing re ... freezing repr ... freezing site ... freezing sre ... freezing sre_compile ... freezing sre_constants ... freezing sre_parse ... freezing stat ... freezing string ... freezing tempfile ... freezing traceback ... freezing types ... freezing warnings ... generating table of frozen modules Warning: unknown modules remain: _locale _random array binascii fcntl itertools math pwd strop time
The minimal set of excludes which produces a still working executable, while excluding everything unnecessary is:
python freeze.py -X codecs -X copy -X distutils -X encodings -X locale -X macpath -X ntpath -X os2emxpath -X popen2 -X pydoc -X re -X warnings hello.py
The resulting list is
freezing UserDict ... freezing __main__ ... freezing copy_reg ... freezing os ... freezing posixpath ... freezing site ... freezing stat ... freezing types ... generating table of frozen modules Warning: unknown modules remain: pwd
Quite a difference... The sizes of the resulting binaries are:

I have errors trying to freeze a wxPython script:
ricardo@yuggoth:~/Python$ ./hello2
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "hello2.py", line 1, in ?
from wxPython.wx import *
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/wx-2.5.3-gtk2-unicode/wxPython/__init__.py", line 10, in ?
import _wx
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/wx-2.5.3-gtk2-unicode/wxPython/_wx.py", line 3, in ?
from _core import *
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/wx-2.5.3-gtk2-unicode/wxPython/_core.py", line 15, in ?
import wx._core
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/wx-2.5.3-gtk2-unicode/wx/__init__.py", line 42, in ?
from wx._core import *
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/wx-2.5.3-gtk2-unicode/wx/_core.py", line 4, in ?
import _core_
ImportError: No module named _core_Anyone knows why?
freeze doesn't handle modules written in C/C++ like py2exe does - you have to manually copy all the .so files that you want to use into the LD_LIBRARY_PATH of the output program. However, I did this and now my application segfaults.
I 'm facing the simular problem what gives "ImportError: No module named wxc". but when I put the right wxc.so in the app folder(No need freeze the program again), It just run ok. you can try it.
I tried this and I am still segfaulting - is there any solution to it?

I tried using freeze, and got the following error: c++: /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/lib/python2.3/config/libpython2.3.a: No such file or directory
Anyone know what's going on?
On MacOS, try using ["py2app"], it does a nice job and works perfectly well for MacOS systems.
