Python Script with GTK GUI Compiled with Py2EXE

This is a total hack, but it works. I spent all night jumping through hoops to get this thing to run on Windows. The problem is that I designed my previous UI in a version of GLADE which is newer than that supported by Windows. It looks like it’s not backward-compatible, so I have to re-design the GUI from scratch using an earlier version of GLADE. I’ll probably stick to GTK version 2.12 and Python version 2.6 because they play nicely on Windows. It’s a quick and dirty script, but I was able to make the following run on Windows as a single EXE file!

Scott from the future (10 years later): Where’s the source code for this? Weird post.
