You generally don't do that (the compiled files tend to be specific to various aspects of the target platform). This is a way that i's important to remember that most Python interpreters require compiled Python code. Instead, to have a Python program run on a different computer, the files to copy are the *source* files — preferably, in the hierarchy those files expect. You can do this with ‘rsync’ <URL:https://rsync.samba.org/> for simple cases. For more complex cases, look into Python's distribution and packaging tools <URL:https://python-packaging-user-guide.readthedocs.org/>. For even more complex cases (e.g. where the Python code is only part of a more diverse code base), look into deployment systems and operating system packages. -- \ “When we pray to God we must be seeking nothing — nothing.” | `\ —Francis of Assisi | _o__) | Ben Finney -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
