+#!/usr/bin/env python
+##
+## This Python script can be used to rewrite dylib references in Mach-O headers
+## and resolve the dynamic shared library install names which originally point
+## to the libraries in MXE $(HOST_LIBDIR).
+##
+## Requirements:
+## * Python 2.7
+## * Macholib (pip install http://pypi.python.org/pypi/macholib)
+##
+## Usage:
+## * python -mmacholib find [path to Resources directory of .app] | python standalone.py
+##
+## Example:
+## * python -mmacholib find ./Octave-3.7.5.app/Contents/Resources/ | python standalone.py
+##
+## Important Notes:
+## * Octave should be compiled with the option -headerpad_max_install_names in the LDFLAGS.
+## * The script must be executed as root, if Octave was compiled with root permissions.
+## * Before applying this script, make sure the bin and lib directory is present inside the
+##   Resources folder.
+## * Shared libraries like libcholmod.so, libumfpack.so, and others which end with .so
+##   extension are not assigned any path in the Mach-O headers during compilation. This is
+##   likely to happen while using MXE. This script can fix such errors too, but make sure
+##   you do not use this script on the same App Bundle more than once.
