Hello all,
A while ago I wrote a Python class around appscript that would avoid

Hi folks,
I've just made a couple of changes to py-appscript:
- now supports Python 3.2 (Python 3.0 is no longer supported due to C
API changes)
- eliminated the osax module's dependency on deprecated Carbon APIs

It seems that System Events does not run constantly, or frequently dies.
Quite often, appscript seems to be in a state where it incorrectly thinks
System Events is running, and still sends commands to it,
