Unfortunately there are no good examples:-( The 
Demo/applescript.html is about the only documentation there is, 
and the example it uses won't work under OSX...

If anyone could come up with some good examples that would 
really be very welcome. I think AppleScripting could be one of 
the areas where Python can really shine, but there's still quite 
a bit of a hurdle you have to jump over to get started.
