How do I let my friends use my Python programs? They don\'t have python installed, but they can use command line programs. I don\'t have the skill to write GUI.
You have the options presented thus far: Portable Python and Py2Exe. Either can be pretty good.
My suggestion: encourage your friends to install Python! As you know, it's free, and simple to install and download. If they want your application bad enough, installing Python will be a no-brainer.
