py2exe - Packaged Code Expansion Technique

Question

Python

Is there a way from the compiled .pyc binaries and the generated .exe's, using the py2exe library, to extract identical source code, or ideally, the source code itself?
What methods are there for this, what does the work in obtaining source codes consist of, and in which direction is it better to dig?

Answer 1

As far as I can see from the description , all sources should be in library.zip:

This is a standard zip file where all the pure source modules will be inserted (using the "zipfile" option, you can also select to put that file in a sub-directory and with a different name)[.]
