Description: stickytape: Convert Python packages into a single script
        ========================================================
        
        Stickytape can be used to convert a Python script and any Python modules
        it depends into a single-file Python script. You can tell stickytape
        which directories to search using the ``--add-python-path`` argument.
        For instance:
        
        ``stickytape scripts/blah --add-python-path . > /tmp/blah-standalone``
        
        Or to output directly to a file:
        
        ``stickytape scripts/blah --add-python-path . --output-file /tmp/blah-standalone``
        
        You can also point stickytape towards a Python binary that it should use
        sys.path from, for instance the Python binary inside a virtualenv:
        
        ``stickytape scripts/blah --python-binary _virtualenv/bin/python --output-file /tmp/blah-standalone``
        
        As you might expect with a program that munges source files, there are a
        few caveats:
        
        -  Detection of imports is done using a fairly simple regex. For
           instance, things will go horribly wrong if you use have two import
           statements on the same line separated by a semi-colon. Similarly,
           imports using importlib won't be detected.
        
        -  Anything that relies on the specific location of files will probably
           no longer work. In other words, ``__file__`` probably isn't all that
           useful.
        
        -  Any files that aren't imported won't be included. Static data that
           might be part of your project, such as other text files or images,
           won't be included.
