+This folder contains a set of example scripts that be used to extend the
+capabilities of the ComicTagger app.  They can be run either directly through
+the python interpreter, or via the ComicTagger app.
+
+To run via python directly, install ComicTagger source on your system using
+the setup.py file.
+
+To run via the ComicTagger app, invoke:
+
+# ComicTagger -S script.py [script args]
+
+(This will work also for binary distributions on Mac and Windows.  No need for
+an extra python install.)
+
+The script must have an entry point function called "main()" to be invoked
+via the app.
+
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+This feature is UNSUPPORTED, and is for the convienience of developement-minded
+users of ComicTagger.  The comictaggerlib module will remain largely
+undocumented, and it will up to the crafty script developer to look through
+the code to discern APIs and such.
+
+That said, there are questions, please post on the forums, and hopefully we
+can get your add-on scripts working!
