+# This python script creates Finder aliases for all the
+# dynamically-loaded modules that "live in" in a single
+# shared library.
+# It needs a fully functional non-dynamic python to work
+# (since it creates aliases to stuff it needs itself),
+# you should probably drag it onto your non-dynamic python.
+#
+# If you compare it to MkPluginAliases.as it also serves
+# as a comparison between python and AppleScript:-)
