return codes from py2exe python script

[Tim]

Does anybody know how to get a return code or any errors from a python
script that has been made into a exe using py2exe? Right now when I
run my script.exe it always returns 0 even if the script fails.

Use sys.exit() with an appropriate return value passed as an argument,
e.g. sys.exit(5).
