> A good example of somebody using Python to solve a practical "real world"

> Short precis for those with slow connections: Somebody using Python to

> put a restricted set of this information on his own website. Also includes
> a little example of using Python as a scripting language in vim.

> Probably worth having around as an advocacy sort of article (good to show

> BTW, don't be put of by the "LinuxPlanet" bit --- it's not a Linux
