Below are notes for creating a Windows executable.

An executable can only be made on a Windows host because the PyInstaller tool (https://www.pyinstaller.org/) does not support cross-compilation.

On a Windows machine, do the following:

1.) Install Python v3.7.x from https://www.python.org/.  (As of this writing v3.8.0 isn't supported.)  To make life easier, check the option to add Python to the PATH environment variable.

2.) Using pip, install pyinstaller and colorama:

    pip install pyinstaller colorama

3.) Create the executable with:

    cd src\ssh_audit
    rename ssh_audit.py ssh-audit.py
    pyinstaller -D --icon ..\..\windows_icon.ico --add-data policies;policies ssh-audit.py

4.) Rename the "dist\ssh-audit\" folder to "dist\ssh-audit vX.X.X\"

5.) Zip the "dist\ssh-audit vX.X.X\" folder and name it "windows_ssh-audit_vX.X.X.zip" (hint: zip windows_ssh-audit_vX.X.X.zip -r "ssh-audit vX.X.X").
