Compact Portable Python for Windows

This is a regular Python built from original sources and packed into a single executable file. The packed executable is a lightweight all-in-one Python interpreter, which includes a virtual file system that works like a read-only RAM-disk. Python includes all standard modules, excluding Tkinter and Distutils modules.

Additional libraries

To avoid collisions with possibly installed normal Python, paths to library directories will not be passed to this portable Python, however, the additional command line arguments "--libpath path" can be used to add additional library paths from the command line.

Additional modules can be added to virtual file system per request.
