include files?

[rgndrp]

it would if i'd get it to work :)
now it returns this cgi error:

---------------8<--------------------------
The specified cgi application misbehaved by not returning a
complete set of HTTP headers. The headers it did return are:

  File "e:\_cgi\test.cgi", line 1
    include applic.py
                 ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
--------------->8--------------------------

the only line in applic.py is:
myvar=5

hmpf!
