Gadfly or gadfly or Gadfly.gadfly() or _?

[John Abel]

On my Linux machine:

Python 2.3.3 (#1, Dec 28 2003, 12:13:48)
[GCC 3.3 20030226 (prerelease) (SuSE Linux)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
 >>> import gadfly
 >>>

It looks like your install didn't work properly.  You could try running 
"python setup.py install" again.
