"""Tools for use in AppleEvent clients and servers.
pack(x) converts a Python object to an AEDesc object
unpack(desc) does the reverse
packevent(event, parameters, attributes) sets params and attrs in an AEAppleEvent record
unpackevent(event) returns the parameters and attributes from an AEAppleEvent record
Plus... Lots of classes and routines that help representing AE objects,
ranges, conditionals, logicals, etc., so you can write, e.g.:
x = Character(1, Document("foobar"))
and pack(x) will create an AE object reference equivalent to AppleScript's
character 1 of document "foobar"
Some of the stuff that appears to be exported from this module comes from other
files: the pack stuff from aepack, the objects from aetypes.
