Python Compilation / Packing

We apprcieate simple drop-in no-deps executables, which are genereated by go compiler.

But some of us still don't know go, and more important there are a lot of software written in python.

So we are looking for ways to pack/compile python program to single drop-in exe (or at least exe ad resource dir)
