Well, that's what I was going for.  Is [this][2] better? ([Folder][3] 
with icns file)

I'm hardly an expert at drawing aqua icons, so my highlights might not 
be exactly right.  Someone else may want to take a crack at it.

In any case, even if a slightly more polished version of this is usable 
as a python document icon, what do we want to use for the other 
icons--drag-n-drop script runner, Editor/IDE, .pyc/.pyo files?  pyc 
could just be the same but with "PYC" written at the bottom, I guess, 
but it could also have the paper background modified to signify 
"compiled" in some way.
