[PyQt] Tutorials - making standalone apps on Windows and OS X from PyQt4 apps.

[piotr maliński]

1. Check the zipped size
2. go to the app (show package contents) and see what did it included -
detele all _debug libraries if there are any (aliases and the original
files), and if it added unused PyQt4/other components - exclude them in the
py2app config :) My QtCore/QtGui/simplejson app is 12MB zipped.
