I'm trying to use appscript on my MacBook Pro running OS X 10.5.7 and
the stock Apple Python.  It's never had appscript installed before.
However, I can't get the binary ASDictionary I downloaded to run:

Odd. The osax module appears to be puking on a System Events command (it uses SE to get a list of installed osaxen). What versions of appscript and ASDictionary? What happens if you try to import the osax module into a regular script? Anything unusual about your setup (permissions, haxies, etc.)?

PyObjC/py2app questions I'll leave to those that know more about these things. (FWIW, I build ASDictionary using user-installed Python 2.5.2 framework + PyObjC 1.x for portability.)
