  can be used to run non-GUI and GUI python scripts from the command line, respectively.
  
! 6. How do I create a binary distribution?
! -----------------------------------------
! 
! Note: this section is work-in-progress.
! 
! First, to make sure there's no contamination, it is best to remove your existing Python
! installation (clear out /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework and /Applications/Python).
! Also, after build/install is finished check that nothing has shown up in those two locations.
! 
! Create a subdirectory of the main python directory, say build-pythondist. In there, run
! 	../configure --enable-framework=/tmp/pythondist/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework \
! 		LDFLAGS=-Wl,-x
! 	make
! 	make frameworkinstall
! This installs a complete distribution set in /tmp/pythondist: in a framework build all other
! pathnames are computed from the framework pathname.
! 
! Note that the unix tools in /tmp/pythondist are wrong, these have to be removed, and the
! installer post-install script should recreate them on the target system. Also, the .pyc and
! .pyo files need to be removed:
! 	rm -rf /tmp/pythondist/usr
! 	python.exe ../Mac/script/zappycfiles.py /tmp/pythondist
! 
! TBD: find out how to make a .pkg from here.
! 
! TBD: documentation.
! 
! 7. Odds and ends.
