[C++-sig] Protect your Python code ? Or do I have to write everything in C++ ?

[Billy Gnosis]

Can I protect my python code - meaning, that nobody can read the source 
code when I want to publish it ? Is it already enough if I use .pyc 
files instead of py ? Or is it like in Java, that you can revert the 
compilition process in order to get the source ?

Cheers,

sb
