mod_python apache directives

[jacob.miles at gmail.com]

Hello.  I want to create a catch-all python script, that gets called
for any file request in a certain directory.  I thought this apache
setup would do it, but it doesn't:

<Directory "/Users/jake/www/mydir">
        SetHandler mod_python
        PythonHandler handler
        PythonDebug On

        Options -MultiViews -Indexes
</Directory>

For example, I have a handler.py in that directory, but when I go to
the url 'http://127.0.0.1/mydir/handler.py', it delivers the text of
handler.py - not my intention.  And if I enter any other filename, it
gives me a 404 Not found.

Does anyone know how to do what I'm trying to do?
