Different deployment considerations (was: Python & GUI?)

I do wxPython-based distributions using installer quite often, they are not
"single file" installations, as you get the PythonXX.dll, wxc.pyd,
wxXXX.dll, zlib.pyd, etceteras all as separate files. I think you get the
same for the Tkinter apps, so not really sure what's meant by "single file"
here.

There's nothing special to do for wxPython, I just run "standalone" or
"simple" and the app is generated with the DLLs collected.  Once I rename
msvcirt.dll to msvcrt.dll I've got a working application.

Enjoy,
Mike

I haven't checked, but, why wouldn't Installer (or other
such solutions) work equivalently for, say, wxPython?
