[Tutor] p2exe and icons

[Trent Brown]

Seems that my version of py2exe will does not support the --icon flag 
(that or I'm doing something very wrong that I just don't see). Running 
it with the --icon flag returns an unknown option flag, and help does 
not list it as a supported option.

any help appreciated!

thx
trent
