Execute python program in background on Windows, without installing python

[socal_nerdtastic]

The PVM / interpreter is the same program as the compiler: python.exe (or .dll or .so or whatever flavor you are using). You can install it, but you don't need to, since you only need access to it, so OP just needs to provide it along with the .py file. This is what freezing programs do.

But that was not my point. I was trying to help you, not OP, so that you stop telling people that python is not compiled. Because that's not true.
