+:mod:`gensuitemodule` --- Generate OSA stub packages
+====================================================
+
+.. module:: gensuitemodule
+   :platform: Mac
+   :synopsis: Create a stub package from an OSA dictionary
+.. sectionauthor:: Jack Jansen <Jack.Jansen@cwi.nl>
+.. moduleauthor:: Jack Jansen
+
+The :mod:`gensuitemodule` module creates a Python package implementing stub code
+for the AppleScript suites that are implemented by a specific application,
+according to its AppleScript dictionary.
+
+It is usually invoked by the user through the :program:`PythonIDE`, but it can
+also be run as a script from the command line (pass :option:`--help` for help on
+the options) or imported from Python code. For an example of its use see
+:file:`Mac/scripts/genallsuites.py` in a source distribution, which generates
+the stub packages that are included in the standard library.
+
+It defines the following public functions:
+
+
+.. function:: is_scriptable(application)
+
+   Returns true if ``application``, which should be passed as a pathname, appears
+   to be scriptable. Take the return value with a grain of salt: :program:`Internet
+   Explorer` appears not to be scriptable but definitely is.
+
+
+.. function:: processfile(application[, output, basepkgname,  edit_modnames, creatorsignature, dump, verbose])
+
+   Create a stub package for ``application``, which should be passed as a full
+   pathname. For a :file:`.app` bundle this is the pathname to the bundle, not to
+   the executable inside the bundle; for an unbundled CFM application you pass the
+   filename of the application binary.
+
+   This function asks the application for its OSA terminology resources, decodes
+   these resources and uses the resultant data to create the Python code for the
+   package implementing the client stubs.
+
+   ``output`` is the pathname where the resulting package is stored, if not
+   specified a standard "save file as" dialog is presented to the user.
+   ``basepkgname`` is the base package on which this package will build, and
+   defaults to :mod:`StdSuites`. Only when generating :mod:`StdSuites` itself do
+   you need to specify this. ``edit_modnames`` is a dictionary that can be used to
+   change modulenames that are too ugly after name mangling. ``creator_signature``
+   can be used to override the 4-char creator code, which is normally obtained from
+   the :file:`PkgInfo` file in the package or from the CFM file creator signature.
+   When ``dump`` is given it should refer to a file object, and ``processfile``
+   will stop after decoding the resources and dump the Python representation of the
+   terminology resources to this file. ``verbose`` should also be a file object,
+   and specifying it will cause ``processfile`` to tell you what it is doing.
+
+
+.. function:: processfile_fromresource(application[, output,  basepkgname, edit_modnames, creatorsignature, dump, verbose])
+
+   This function does the same as ``processfile``, except that it uses a different
+   method to get the terminology resources. It opens ``application`` as a resource
+   file and reads all ``"aete"`` and ``"aeut"`` resources from this file.
+
