An initial version of wxPRE is available for Windows (done by me and Stephen Emslie)
This is mainly to demonstrate the progress made so far, its very simple
Basically we have a wxPRE.py script, which runs the first script on the command line and passes it any other options.
It also does manual checking for .pth files, which are not handled by py2exe-generated executables.
There is also a simple setup.py for making wxPRE.exe using py2exe
The result is an executable which can be used as a substitue for python for running wx-based python programs
Extra modules can be included through the use of .pth files

You may want to put the py2exe options needed to include all the extra modules and packages within the setup.py file so people don't have to be familiar with the py2exe command-line options.

So the next steps are:
- add info to the registry about each wxPRE installation
- add ability to package wxPRE apps, with or without wxPRE
- add ability to associate wxPRE apps with wxPRE (depends on packaging)

Yes, I've just found out how to do this.
I've updated py2exe as well to create an installer using InnoSetup
I've also tested it to work with wx 2.4 as well as wx 2.5
The resulting files are here: http://davidf.sjsoft.com/files/wxPRE-0.2-src.zip (the source, < 5k)
I downloaded this, and noticed that these dlls are also included:
DDRAW.dll GLU32.dll OPENGL32.dll
That is really py2exe's fault, but it should be avoided. First, I'm not
sure if they are redistributable (you should check the license).
Second, AFAIK, they are part of the system, and must be installed from
official MS installers (if they are not already present) - they will
most certainly not work on some windows versions.
py2exe in CVS already should be fixed to exlude them.

Thanks for pointing this out...

Unfortunately it's impossible to get access to py2exe CVS anonymously at the moment (sourceforge problem) ... is there a way I can get hold of the patch?
I'm working on a little program that display images, but i want to put an image png in the code, in the wxdemo i have found a png converted to stream (see example after), and with a function this stream is reconverted in image.
My question is, starting with a png, how to create stream?
Thanks a lot

OK, sourceforge cvs is back up, I have grabbed py2exe from there and rebuilt, and the DLLs are no longer there.
This drops the file size by another 900k. The only dlls remaining are python23, pythoncom23, pywintypes23, and the wx dlls.
Also I have updated the path code to handle multi-line path files as Jean-Michel Fauth suggested.
New (real working :-)) URLs below.

PS Thomas, the new mingw support in py2exe seems to work fine, are you planning a release?
