Most important changes since last posting (v1.1.22)
 - should now work on every python version from 1.5.2 and up
   (Python 2.1 and up recommended, for nested_scoping).
 - bug fixes to file-based session handler
 - -O switch added to handle multiple files
 - Windows installer
 - improved line compaction algorithm
 - fcgi implemented on Windows too (Apache 2.0 mod_fcgi expected soon)
 - cgi stdout forced to binary mode on Windows
 - documenation reorganized and split up onto multiple pages
 - live examples on sourceforge
 - lots of other minor improvements

----------
SPYCE - Server Python Pages

SPYCE is a webserver plugin that supports simple and efficient
Python-based dynamic HTML scripting. Those who like Python and are
familiar with JSP, or PHP, or ASP, should have a look at this engine. It
allows one to generate dynamic HTML content just as easily, using Python
for the dynamic parts. Its modular design makes it very flexible and
extensible. It supports FastCGI, CGI and mod_python to plugin into Apache
and most other webservers. It can also be used as a command-line utility
for HTML pre-processing.

v1.1.29 released on 16 July 2002.
