Requiring users to install Python themselves might be asking too much = for many =E2=80=93 they would just look somewhere else for a tool that = doesn=E2=80=99t impose requirements. Anyway the standard install comes = with developer tools that the ordinary user will not need and, from my = experience, object to. I=E2=80=99ve been pointed to PyInstaller which might be a solution for = distributing the Python script separately. Cheers.
