2 question from a python newbie!

[Jay O'Connor]

> > 1). Can python scripts be compiled to 'stand alone' .exe files?

What with executable programmings shipping with a myriad of DLL or share
library files, I'm not sure why making an 'executable' is that big an
issue 

>P.S. so python is really used as a scripting language and nothing more?

No.  It makes a good scripting language, but twith the various UI and DB
interfaces it has, it's used for a lot more

Take care,
