[ANN] PyInstaller 3.1.1

[Hartmut Goebel]

Hello,

on behalf of the PyInstaller development team I'm happy to announce
PyInstaller 3.1.1

   http://www.pyinstaller.org


Thanks for all those who contributed questions, bug-reports or
pull-requests.


=== What it is ===

PyInstaller bundles a Python application and all its dependencies into a
single package. The user can run the packaged app without installing a
Python
interpreter or any modules.

PyInstaller reads a Python script written by you. It analyzes your code to
discover every other module and library your script needs in order to
execute.
Then it collects copies of all those files – including the active Python
interpreter! – and puts them with your script in a single folder, or
optionally in a single executable file.

PyInstaller is tested against Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. However, it
is not
a cross-compiler: to make a Windows app you run PyInstaller in Windows; to
make a Linux app you run it in Linux, etc. PyInstaller has been used
successfully with AIX, Solaris, and FreeBSD, but is not tested against
them.

=== Installation ===

PyInstaller can be installed from PyPi using

   pip install pyiinstaller
