+ *******************
+
+The installer puts applications, an "Update Shell Profile" command,
+and an Extras folder containing demo programs and tools into the
+"Python $VERSION" subfolder of the system Applications folder,
+and puts the underlying machinery into the folder
+$PYTHONFRAMEWORKINSTALLDIR. It can
+optionally place links to the command-line tools in /usr/local/bin as
+well. Double-click on the "Update Shell Profile" command to add the
+"bin" directory inside the framework to your shell's search path.
