0.0.4.11 Passlist .exe

This is an executable version of the .py passlist script that I made for our team to use on Windows systems, and figured others using Nx's services would benefit from this.  Until Nx creates .exe versions of this and release it with the .py version, I just create my own.

I simply used Pyinstaller and added a single additional line of script at the end to prevent the .exe from auto-closing once the process completed.

This is a link to my personal drive for the current 0.0.4.11 version, but it may be removed down the line as newer versions are released.

I understand there is concern for downloading strange .exe files from random people, so if you would like to create it yourself, these are the steps:

1. Install Python on Windows with IDLE

2. Install Pyinstaller

3. Download the .py passlist tool provided by Nx

4. Using IDLE (or an editor of your choice) add:

k=input("press close to exit")

to the end of the script and save.

5. Using Command Prompt as admin, run:

cd <directory of .py script>

6. Run:

pyinstaller --onesource cloud_passlist_#.#.#.#.py

7. Once completed, the compiled .exe will be in the "dist" directory that should have also been created.

Alternatively for Steps 5 and 6, you can simply run:

pyinstaller --onesource {directory to .py}

For Step 4, this was a simple method to prevent the .exe from auto-closing but if you're familiar with Python you can likely make your own adjustments as needed.
