# 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:-)

Try the following:
1. Remove any old "Python Preferences" files from the system folder.
2. Remove any old "PythonCore" files from the system folder.
3. Make sure this script, PythonPPC and PythonCore are all located in the
python home folder (where the Lib and PlugIns folders are)
4. Run this script again, by dropping it on PythonPPC.
If this fails try removing starting afresh from the distribution archive.
