ConsoleKeepPath is used when you want to retain the sys.path of an
*existing* Python installation. As such it isn't much use as a "freezing"
tool since it requires Python to be installed on the target machine. That
said, it does freeze the main script so it has limited use. In general on
Windows use Win32GUI or Win32Service for GUI applications and services. For
console based applications or on any other platform simply use Console.
Hope that explains things.
