Standalone executables

I found this on c.l.p.announce:
The Linux version of Installer for Python 2 is here:
 http://www.mcmillan-inc.com/installer_dnld.html

Background:
 The Installer is a sort of compilerless Freeze - a way 
of distributing Python apps with all the required support built 
in. The Linux version collects all dependencies and packages 
the pure Python into an archive attached to the executable.
Just tar, gzip and ship.
---------------------------------------
I believe this package also works with/for Windows.

Regards,

Dave LeBlanc
