I am sure someone has already pointed this out, but just incase, the 
help.py file imports distutils.fancy_getopt.wrap_text to format the help 
... and since distutils isn't really happy with Jython, that means that by 
default optik can't run on jython.  Seems like such a shame ... I did get 
it to work by grabbing what I needed and faking a distutils.fancy_getopt 
module ...  Is there plan to incorporate this into optik in some 
fashion?  Otherwise 1.4 seems to work fine (of course you have to hand 
install it but what else to do?)

Cheers,
