I've tried both cx_Freeze and py2exe (suggested by Jacob Kruger a while 
back 
<https://groups.google.com/d/msg/agrip-project/kXhk_J3X0wA/yfHEaHe_1DIJ>). 
 However I have run into problems with both.  This is because PyGUI uses 
some weird magic to work out which of its submodules to load, depending on 
the OS.  Each module is coded specifically for a given OS, and when you, 
say, ask to import GUI.Globals, it goes and finds the one for your current 
OS and imports that.  Neither cx_Freeze nor py2exe can cope with this. 
 However, there is a script that PyGUI includes to sort this out for 
py2exe.  Unfortunately I could not get it to work either.

I like the idea of cx_Freeze as I think it could simplify the build system 
across Mac and Windows tremendously.  Alas I have simply not been able to 
get it to work yet.  I can send you my setup.py if you have time to look at 
it, maybe you can work out how to help it find the right PyGUI modules. 
 Though it looks quite complicated!

best regards,


Matthew
