Python control of desktop properties

Hello, all.
I'm teaching Python for the first time to some high school students, and
it's going well--Tomorrow's lesson: I'm going to show them how to use a
list comprehension to simplify a task.
One of my students is interested in using Python to control his
(Windows) desktop, and wants to write a program to change the desktop
background or wallpaper. I told him I'd look into this, but I've had to
admit defeat.
Can someone point me in the right direction, possibly post the simplest
Python program that can accomplish this. I understand this won't be
portable. At school, we use Win98SE; the student in question is using
XPHome at home, and I typically use Gentoo Linux/KDE 3.3. If there were
a single solution that would address all three environments, I'd be...
well, shocked.
Merci beaucoup,
Nick.
