"""Tools for use in AppleEvent clients and servers.
|
|
|
|
pack(x) converts a Python object to an AEDesc object
|
|
unpack(desc) does the reverse
|
|
|
|
packevent(event, parameters, attributes) sets params and attrs in an AEAppleEvent record
|
|
unpackevent(event) returns the parameters and attributes from an AEAppleEvent record
|
|
|
|
Plus... Lots of classes and routines that help representing AE objects,
|
|
ranges, conditionals, logicals, etc., so you can write, e.g.:
|
|
|
|
x = Character(1, Document("foobar"))
|
|
|
|
and pack(x) will create an AE object reference equivalent to AppleScript's
|
|
|
|
character 1 of document "foobar"
|
|
|
|
Some of the stuff that appears to be exported from this module comes from other
|
|
files: the pack stuff from aepack, the objects from aetypes.
