When I run pyinstaller --onefile --add-data.wavFiles;wavFiles myscript.py (or the same with --onedir) I get this message: "--add-data: invalid add-data_or_binary_value:'wavFiles:wavFiles." This leaves me mystified.
I read http://pyinstaller.readthedocs.io/en/stable/runtime-information.html but couldn't find anything helpful that I coul understand.
