rsync (Everyone seems to like -z, but it is much slower for me)

a: archive mode - rescursive, preserves owner, preserves permissions, preserves modification times, preserves group, copies symlinks as symlinks, preserves device files.
H: preserves hard-links

	appify v3.0.1 for Mac OS X - http://mths.be/appify
	Creates the simplest possible Mac app from a shell script.

	Appify takes a shell script as its first argument:

	`basename "$0"` my-script.sh

	I use Homebrew and wanted to install pip for mercurial. Pip requires a homebrew-installed version of Python, which is fine and dandy; however, I noticed that webkit2png was broken after I installed Python with Homebrew (it was missing pyobjc libs, which comes with the OS X Python install by default).

	This assumes that the current homebrewed version of Python is 2.7.1 and that homebrew is set up for /usr/local. If that's not the case, you may have to change the minor version of setuptools (e.g. from 2.7 to 2.8) and change the PATH accordingly.

	$ brew install python

	Modify your PATH to include the path to Python's bin directory:

	export PATH="/usr/local/Cellar/python/2.7.1/bin:/usr/local/bin:$PATH"
