This can be done in a more POSIX compatible way with:

#!/usr/bin/env sh
DIR="$(CDPATH= cd -- "$(dirname -- "$0")" && pwd -P)"

While readlink tends to be available on GNU, Busybox, & BSD/OS X systems, it's non-standard & flags differ between them.

good catch.

Thanks for this!! fbs run works perfectly in MacBook(2016) v12.6.2 with python Python 3.10.9
fbs freeze builds, but this error is shown when I run Vial:-

Fatal Python error: init_fs_encoding: failed to get the Python codec of the filesystem encoding
Python runtime state: core initialized
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'encodings'

FWIW, the appimage this builds dumps core on my Arch install. Something packaging-related (missing libqxcb.so?) as I have no issues running target/Vial/Vial. May be a matter of updating pkg2appimage. I'll poke at it again some other time soon.

Would be a good idea to switch to pypi's hidapi package too -- xyz mentioned it was forked because of the 3.6 dependency. The older version won't build on your average Windows box without jumping through some annoying VC++ dependency hoops (...didn't feel like doing this so I just installed current from pip)

Which brings me to my main point -- think I've managed to fix the Windows build by updating Vial's configuration to match fbs's current defaults (plus a few extras). I'll bang on it for a week to see if anything breaks and then submit a PR to your branch with details.

Google tells me this may be a venv issue. Try recreating yours, just in case.
