[Bf-python] Python API feature request

[Claudio "malefico" Andaur]

As I told Campbell in IRC, here it is a newer version of your script 
with minor tweaks done by CJD (our pythion guru) to make it work in all 
selected objects. We took the liberty to call it Captain Hook. You know, 
people just can't help it.

Regards

malefico

PS: This script resets all hook modifiers for all selected objects. 
Great timesaver for riggers who like lattices and hooks ;-)

import bpy
scn = bpy.scenes.active
obs = scn.objects

print "Captain Hook ? working..."

for ob in obs:
    if ob.sel == True:
        for m in ob.modifiers:
            try:        m.reset()
            except:        pass
        print "procesado",ob.name
        ob.makeDisplayList()

print "finished \n"
