*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.
