I assume you installed python from the port.

Most of the other things included in the windows python distribution are
seperate packages under FreeBSD.  Here is a brief list of the python ports I am
aware of:
astro/pyweather
audio/pysol-sound-server
databases/gadfly
databases/py-MySQL
databases/py-MySQLdb
databases/py-PyGreSQL
devel/idle              # Install this to get the idle IDE
devel/py-htmlkit
devel/py-kjbuckets
devel/py-kqueue
devel/py-mxDateTime
devel/py-mxStack
devel/py-mxTools
games/pysol
graphics/py-imaging
graphics/py-imaging-handbook
graphics/py-opengl
lang/python             # I suspect this is the only one you have installed
lang/python+ipv6
lang/python-doc-html
lang/python-doc-pdf-a4
lang/python-doc-pdf-letter
lang/python-doc-postscript-a4
lang/python-doc-postscript/letter
math/numpy
math/py-scientific
math/pygist
misc/py-distutils
textproc/py-mxTextTools

The trouble with computers is that they do what you tell them, not what
you want.
