How to make ".exe" for macs

raubana

I want to make a mac compatible, no installing package for some of my games, but i don't know if I can on my PC.

(I have XP on it and it's a Dell, if you must know)

So is it possable? If yes, where do I get the downloads and how do I use it?

There's no such thing as a ".exe" that can run in Windows and Mac both. If you're looking for a great Windows executable maker look to py2exe, which is very easy to use and heavily documented.

The analgous package for creating Mac apps would be py2app. I'm sure with a little tweaking you could come up with a utility to take a python script and run both py2exe and py2app against it.

I know there's no such thing! That's why the .exe had the ...um, these things "" around them! Anyway, thanks for you help. But I need to know: will I still be able to create these files even if they were made on a PC?

I don't quite understand what you're asking.... When you say "they were made on a PC" are you talking about the python scripts? If so, python scripts will have no problem being moved from a PC to a Mac (as far as I know). However I do not believe that you can install py2app on a PC ... I've never used a mac for Python and haven't really touched one in a number of years so I cannot tell you for sure.
