Summary: Improving MacPython's IAC support

Initial Comment:
While usable, MacPython's high-level Apple event-based inter-
application communication (IAC) support is not as good as it 
could be. As a first step to overhauling it, I'd like to suggest 
replacing the aepack.py, aetools.py, aetypes.py and 
gensuitemodule.py modules with appscript, a new MacPython-
Apple Event Manager bridge [c/o yrs truly] submitted here for 
your consideration:

(Note: appscript development is ongoing as of 3/14/04. 
Assuming provisional acceptance, some discussion of Things To 
Be Done Before It's Included will be needed; the MacPython SIG 
might be a good place for this.)
