Is it possible to 'compile' a script?

[Mike C. Fletcher]

Or, you can decide to use something like the Python specialising 
compiler (Psyco), which does the work by compiling the Python code to 
assembler.  Of course, Greg knew about it, but solosnake might not know 
about it.  Psyco is still early in its life, but its a promising 
approach for real-world apps.

Enjoy,
Mike
