It looks similar, but it's really not at all.  This script simply lets 
you change the coordinates of objects on the page, which is relatively 
simple.  pdlib has a very different focus, in that it manipulates 
objects rather than just move windows.  Besides that, pdlib has been 
through several non-public iterations already, and its license is clearer.
