Unclear what you really mean, but I can answer "yes" to both
interpretations of your question: if you want a "pypy-sandbox" binary
that runs a given .py source file, then yes, it's the way it's
supposed to work; or, if you want to include the .py source file
inside the executable itself, then "yes" as well, although it's more
complicated (and useless in my opinion, even in the context of
sandboxing).

Yes, that's how the external process demo is coded: in Python, to run
with the normal (i.e. non-sandboxed) CPython or PyPy interpreter.


A bientôt,

Armin.
