-Application Scripting
-=====================
-
-Python can also be used to script other Mac applications via Apple's Open
-Scripting Architecture (OSA); see http://appscript.sourceforge.net. Appscript is
-a high-level, user-friendly Apple event bridge that allows you to control
-scriptable Mac OS X applications using ordinary Python scripts. Appscript makes
-Python a serious alternative to Apple's own *AppleScript* language for
-automating your Mac. A related package, *PyOSA*, is an OSA language component
-for the Python scripting language, allowing Python code to be executed by any
-OSA-enabled application (Script Editor, Mail, iTunes, etc.). PyOSA makes Python
-a full peer to AppleScript.
