Sharing my way of installing this app

First, thank you, @savbell, for maintaining such a great app as a perfect replacement for windows win+h key but with powerful OpenAI's models.

I found a way to make a binary out of it using pyinstaller. Here is the step:

1. Follow the README to set up python and virtual environment.
2. Run pip install pyinstaller webrtcvad to install missing modules before packaging with pyinstaller
3. Run pyinstaller --name whisper-writer src/main.py, you should get something like this in dist/whisper-writer.
   
4. copy the src/config_schema.yaml file into the dist/whisper-writer/_internal folder
5. create a new empty folder in dist/whisper-writer/src as it is needed for whisper writer to save config.yaml file
6. Optionally, you can copy your own config.yaml file into dist/whisper-writer/src/config.yaml
7. Your folder eventually could become like following. The env file pops up if you set your own OpenAI key.
   
8. If you didn't do step 6, the first time you save your setting could lead to the app crashes on restart, but that is ok as the config.yaml file is already generated. Next time the app will run with the config.yaml.

Fun fact, if you feed the requirements.txt to ChatGPT to remove all version numbers. You will be able to run and install the app using Python 3.12. In fact, I wrote this discussion purely on Python 3.12
