Running Python

Ok I've gotten py2exe because I have friends that want to test my programs, but they don't want to download the python program. Well I have tried to run the compiler out of MS-DOS and the Python version of MS-DOS. But every time I wind up with an error. I can't use the prompt for the life of me and I have no idea of any of the commands. :confused:

A example or step by step would be GREATLY appreciated. :cheesy:

Running: Windows ME, Python 2.3

Perhaps you could enlighten us with the error message you're getting?

Then again, you could convince your friends to install python. It's not like it'll kill their computer or anything...
