This is a nice little utility.  I'll check it in and put a link to it on
the website.

If spambayes is on your PYTHONPATH then it will just work.  If it's not,
then you need to add the spambayes directory to sys.path.  Some of the
testing scripts do this (timtest.py and timcv.py do, I think).  For
example:

"""
import os
import sys

sys.path.insert(-1, os.getcwd()) # add this directory
sys.path.insert(-1, os.path.dirname(os.getcwd())) # add the parent
directory
"""
