One of the negatives of running appscripts to script apps is that MacPython icon appearing in the dock. Not only is it useless, since you can't interact with the app skeleton with the GUI, but it also slows the launch of scripts.
I've managed to banish that icon by editing the Info.plist file of the Resources/Python.app/Contents folder of the Python framework. All I did was add the key LSUIElement with integer value 1, and the icon has been banished and appscript still works. This is great, but am I doing myself any disservice by doing that? What is that app used for, besides appscript? By the way, what is the history of that icon? Why is it a 16 ton weight? Is there a chance it could look less ... classic ... in a future version of Mac Python?
