Installing a python program without full distribution - minimal requirements...

[jeuxal_com]

Hi,

I need to add a python program (web updater+extras) with a window application.
The same thing as the Online Lord of the Ring game (http://lotrtcg.decipher.com/).
When you install their application, it create a subdirectory with very few python files*.dll,*.pyd,*.pyc.:

_socket.pyd
_sre.pyd
_tkinter.pyd
(laucher.pyc)
(lotrotcglaucher.exe)
python22.dll
PyWinTypes22.dll
tcl83.dll
tk83.dll
win32api.pyd
xlib.pyd
_MEI\...

Context: I want to add some python capabilities to my application, but not force the user to install the full python distro.
Questions:
1- Are these files sufficient? (Too simple to be true!)
2- Is their some registry/path entries do perform to setup a minimal python runtime?

Other ideas, examples of how to do it in a simple way?

Thanks
AL

Google for py2exe or McMillan Installer. These utilities will zip your
Python code plus these needed dll's, etc. into a free-standing .EXE file.
