What is cx_Freeze?

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. It supports Python 2.3 or
higher, including Python 3.
