What do I use on linux to make a python program executable

Question

I just installed a linux system (Kubuntu) and was wondering if there is a program to make python programs executable for linux.

Answer 1

You can use PyInstaller. It generates a build dist so you can execute it as a single "binary" file.

Python 3 has the native option of create a build dist also:
