It is probably already configured for them. Put them in the cgi-bin, mark
them as executable, and add a line like this to them-

#!/usr/bin/python

-where /usr/bin/python points to the python interpreter.

I read that '#!/usr/bin/env python' should not be used with apache, because
its shell might have a limited path.
