In one of my application, I had to face the three points discussed here
1) application path
2) configuration file
3) issue with py2exe
1) has already been commented
2) wxConfig is platform dependent. Why not using the module ConfigParser?
It is a pure Python module and therefore platform independent. I appreciate
the # for commenting a line.
3) if the application is frozen, it is possible to check the 'frozen' attribute
of that application.
Instead of 1000 words, have a look at my psi application
http://www.chez.com/spinecho/pypsi/pagpypsi.htm
I suggest to check the "start" module psi.py.
