Python creating a file in the setup

[Wictorian]

So I am using py2exe to convert a python script to an executable but I wanna create a file in the same directory.

How can I do this in the setup script?

It's in the "dist" folder after you run the setup. The tutorial explains how to make the executable: https://www.py2exe.org/index.cgi/Tutorial

A bit of googline tells there is a "-d" flag to tell the output directory: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5811960/is-there-a-way-to-specify-the-build-directory-for-py2exe

 

It is good practise to keep the separate build and dist folders though. That way you can easily track what is just build-time stuff and actual distributable and runnable stuff.
