Is it possible to distribute only the bytecode version (.pyc file) of a Python script instead of the original .py file? My app embeds the Python interpreter and calls PyImport_Import to load a script. How can I tell it to look for a .pyc file and import that?
I did it by creating .py library and simple .py program that uses that library. Then I compiled library to .pyc and distributed: program as .py source and library as compiled .pyc.
