first off, let's all go back and enjoy that original quote :]
i really don't know about building a standalone unix version of
pygame apps. i do know gordon mcmillan has finally gotten some time
to get back to his installer stuff, which previously supported linux.
i was wondering if hacking together a "mini-python" along with the
installation tools from loki would be a decent solution?
sorry, no urls, im tired and off to bed.
