Description: tg2exe is a "tg-admin" command line utility extension
        which could help you converting the TurboGears project to an
        Stand Alone Application on windows platform.
        
        Advantage
        --------------
        The benifit is you can use TurboGears' power to write
        Off-line applications with web interface and AJAX.
        
        When the application is running, your computer host as
        a web server (Actually it is).
        
        Your user can quickly evaluate your application without install
        python or related modules.
        
        Install
        --------------
        You could use::
        
        $ easy_install tg2exe
        
        command to install this module
        
        pywin32 is required
        http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/
        
        Usage
        ----------
        Once you installed tg2exe, you'll got an 'makexe' command within
        the "tg-admin" command line utility.
        
        Enter your project folder, type::
        
        tg-admin makexe
        
        and tg2exe will produce a dist folder for you.
        
        This utility does not make an *.exe, it assembles all the
        dependencies and runtime libraries into a single directory,
        so that it's easy to wrap everything into a single setup package.
        
        You are free to package 'dist' folder into an installer (such as InnoSetup).
        
        Notice that the stand alone file are equivalent to production project,
        so you need to have a setted prod.cfg. The simple approach is to
        rename the sample-prod.cfg to prod.cfg.
        
        Note
        -----------
        The owe is its distribution size. The raw dist with quickstart
        project is about 12 MB.
        
        After a quick remove, 10MB (1/3) is possible.
        
        Current Stage: make it work
        
        (next stages are make it better, then make it small)

        ------------
        tg2exe is based on the script written by Volodymyr Orlenko,
        he post the original script on TurboGears MailList in Jul 2006.
