Cool. I'm surprised this didn't exist earlier. Now someone upload it to pypi for even more hilarity.

  There was (and is) no reason for it to exist since python supports running .zip files that contain all the dependencies.

    I had never heard of that, reading up on it now. Thanks for posting!

      pex is a build tool built on the top of the zip trick. A pex file doesn't contain a bundled interpreter, but it zips up the entire virtualenv. Also no Windows support. https://pex.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ https://pex.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
