Load Python script for Maya 2012 on a Mac

[mtcgs]

I found a cool free little script for creating a dynamic chain in Maya called "Create Dynamic Chain From Curve 1.2.1". However, it's a Python script and I'm just not familiar enough with Python to be able to get it to work. I'm not a scripts guy. I'm kind of ok with MEL, but Python ... not so much. Can anyone walk me through getting this script to function on my Mac? Feel free to treat me like a 6 year old since my adventures into Python have pretty much knocked me down to about that level anyway (apologies to all you Python writing 6 year olds). A step-by step outline would be great.Thanks in advance to anyone who would waste time on this.

You do it the same way as you would for a mel script (put it in your scripts folder), except to run it youd type import scriptname instead inside maya command window set to python (click on the damn mel text and it turns to python)
