+cx_Freeze (python script freezer)
+
+cx_Freeze is a set of scripts and modules for freezing Python
+scripts into executables in much the same way that py2exe and py2app
+do. Unlike these two tools, cx_Freeze is cross platform and should
+work on any platform that Python itself works on.

+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.  Line
+# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
+# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.  You must
+# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also
+# customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines.
