I have 2 .pyo python files that I can convert to .py source files, but they don't compile perfectly as hinted by decompyle's verify.

Therefore looking at the source code, I can tell that config.pyo simply had variables in in an array:

ADMIN_USERIDS = [116901, 141, 349244, 39, 1159488]

I would like to take the original .pyo and disassembly or whatever I need to do inorder to change one of these IDs.

Or....

in model.pyo the source indicates a

if (productsDeveloperId != self.getUserId()):

All I would want to do is hex edit the != to be a == .....Simple with a windows exe program but I can't find a good python disassembler anywhere.

Any suggestions are welcomed...I am new to reading bytecode and new to python as well.
