brentvollebregt/auto-py-to-exe ★ 4993 815 APPLICATION

Auto PY to EXE is a desktop application that provides a graphical interface for converting Python scripts (.py) into standalone Windows executables (.exe) using PyInstaller under the hood. The application is structured as a Python package with a web-based frontend served locally via the Eel framework, which bridges JavaScript UI components with a Python backend. The backend handles argument parsing, configuration management, file dialogs (via tkinter), and orchestrates PyInstaller execution, capturing logs and output to display in real-time in the browser UI. The tool supports a wide range of PyInstaller options, including onefile/onedir modes, console hiding, icon assignment, additional files, and many advanced flags, all exposed through a dynamically generated settings panel. It also includes version checking against GitHub API for both itself and PyInstaller, along with compatibility shims (e.g., for Python 3.12 bottle issues). The codebase is well-organized into distinct modules (validation, packaging, UI, dialogs, utils, shims) with a clear separation between Python backend and frontend presentation, though some cross-module coupling exists via a global config singleton. Tests cover basic packaging, library imports, and dependency availability, though they are limited in scope.

katahiromz/RisohEditor ★ 521 62 APPLICATION

RisohEditor is a mature Win32 desktop application for editing, creating, and translating Windows PE resources (.exe, .dll, .rc, .res files). It supports all standard resource types including icons, cursors, bitmaps, dialogs, menus, accelerators, string tables, version info, message tables, toolbars, manifests, HTML, and custom binary data. The application provides a visual dialog editor (RADical) with drag-and-drop control placement, a tree-view resource browser, a hex viewer, and a code editor for RC text. It integrates with external tools like windres, mcpp (preprocessor), UPX (compression), and includes an embedded scripting language (EGA) for batch automation. Architecture follows the Win32 SDK pattern with custom MFC-like wrappers (MZC4 library) for window subclassing, property sheets, splitters, and utility classes. Resource parsing and serialization is done per-type via dedicated classes (e.g., IconRes, MenuRes, DialogRes) that implement LoadFromStream/SaveToStream. The application maintains a global resource database (g_res) and constants database (g_db) for ID resolution. It supports 17+ UI languages and can encrypt resources via WonRes submodule. Entry points include MMainWnd (main window) and the command-line interface for batch processing.
