Well, the compile function listed here will give you a pyc file...
http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-pycompile.html#l2h-3816

...but from what i've heard it's only a little bit better then say, rot-13, 
for keeping people out of your source. It will probably keep out the 
slightly curious, the incapable, and those of us who just don't care what's 
in there :)
