[Pythonmac-SIG] Silly question perhaps, but how do I use py2app?

I downloaded and installed py2app this evening.  I didn't find an app named
"py2app", but did find /usr/local/bin/py2applet.  Is that py2app?  If not,
where is it?  I tried running py2applet with no args or with --help.  Both
times it emitted lines like:

    running py2app
    creating /private/tmp/tmpN4iyW5/build
    creating /private/tmp/tmpN4iyW5/build/bdist.darwin-7.9.0-Power_Macintosh
    creating /private/tmp/tmpN4iyW5/build/bdist.darwin-7.9.0-Power_Macintosh/python2.4-standalone
    creating /private/tmp/tmpN4iyW5/build/bdist.darwin-7.9.0-Power_Macintosh/python2.4-standalone/app
    creating /private/tmp/tmpN4iyW5/build/bdist.darwin-7.9.0-Power_Macintosh/python2.4-standalone/app/collect
    creating /private/tmp/tmpN4iyW5/build/bdist.darwin-7.9.0-Power_Macintosh/python2.4-standalone/app/temp
    creating /private/tmp/tmpN4iyW5/dist
    creating build/bdist.darwin-7.9.0-Power_Macintosh/python2.4-standalone/app/lib-dynload
    creating build/bdist.darwin-7.9.0-Power_Macintosh/python2.4-standalone/app/Frameworks
    error: You must specify either app or plugin

I'd appreciate some tips on how to use it.

Thanks,
