No, as I love working in Python, and loath C++. Although Python is my
favorite language, I can still see it's warts. The distribution tools
available really are pretty bad, and it's not so much that "Python
wasn't designed for it", but rather that barely anyone ships Python
.exe's and so it's rare that anyone notices just how bad this aspect is.
Anyway, my reason for posting wasn't so much to complain about py2exe,
but just hoping that someone would know of something better.

Because I prefer to use numpy, since it's replaced Numeric (which is now
defunct), but I also use pygame, which uses Numeric. Fortunately, I'd
just begun to switch to numpy and it was easy enough to switch back to
Numeric, but having to change my code to get it to work isn't encouraging..
Now I'm working on this one, which I vaguely recall coming up in Pypack
discussion before:
