+"""
+
+
+When this script is run it will create a .py module (output to the
+current directory) containing a class derived from
+wx.activex.ActiveXWindow for the progID or CLSID given on the command
+line.  By default the class name will be used as the module name as
+well, but this is just because I am lazy, not trying to define a
+standard or anything.  Feel free to rename the module, I do.
+
+Usage:
+
+    python genax.py CLSID|progID className
