FlashMX and Py2exe doesn't fly...

[Grooooops]

Flash and Python could be a VERY powerful pair of tools for building
quick apps, Yet I don't see much on the web about it.

I was excited to see that it is possible to make them play together
here:
http://www.klaustrofobik.org/blog/archives/000235.html

Unfortunately, these folks seem to have gotten stuck on compiling the
py files to exe, and since I don't see reference to it anywhere else, I
was wondering if anyone here knew why it didn't work, or if anyone had
ideas about how to make it work.

Normally I would put some test code here, but I'm way out of my league.
Just insanely curious...

Any thoughts???


Thanks,
-J

They seem to have fixed it (haven't tried it myself) in a later
discussion:

They did it with Gush: (I think)

It's a py program that embeds Flash.... very nice.

Very nice indeed! Does anyone know any details about the technology they
used for this? It appears to be closed source, and I couldn't see anything
on their site about the architecture (other than a list of credits that
includes ctypes, win32all, Macromedia and SciTE|Flash).

Wow, that was easy!

Thanks Myles!!!
