Hi,

I looked at this, and took the time to try out the approach some time ago, 
you should be aware:

<quote> The startup time of a wxPython app with lzma compression becomes 
very long (1+ minute) on a machinne with 64MB RAM and a Pentium 200MHz, but 
it's usable on faster machines that are common today ;-) </quote>

The startup time is rather long, and this sould be considered as a serious 
drawback of this approach. 

Luis.
