    ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *INTRODUCTION*

    *eGenix PyRun*™ <https://www.egenix.com/company/legal/trademarks.html>
    is our open source, one file, no installation version of Python, making
    the distribution of a Python interpreter to run Python based scripts and applications to Unix based systems simple and efficient.

    eGenix PyRun's executable only needs 4-6MB on disk, but still supports
    most Python applications and scripts.

    Compared to a regular Python installation of typically 100MB on disk,
    eGenix PyRun is ideal for applications and scripts that need to be
    distributed to containers, VMs, clusters, client installations,
    customers or end-users.

    It makes "installing" Python on a Unix based system as simple as copying
    a single file.

    eGenix has been using eGenix PyRun as run-time for the Linux version of
    mxODBC Connect Server
    <https://www.egenix.com/products/python/mxODBCConnect/> product since
    2008 with great success and decided to make it available as a
    stand-alone open-source product.

    We provide the source archive to build your own *eGenix PyRun on Github* <https://github.com/eGenix/egenix-pyrun>, as well as a few binary distributions to get you started on Linux x86_64. In the future, we will
    set up automated builds for several other platforms.

    Please see the product page for more details:
