extending python problem

[rdejuana at my-deja.com]

I'm trying to extend python with c.  I trying to
get the progam at the tutorial to work. but every
time i try to import it it tells me it cant find
the init function.  This is the error:

>>>import libPYSTAF
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "./libPYSTAF.py", line 3, in ?
    import libPYSTAF.so
ImportError: dynamic module does not define init
function (initlibPYSTAF)

This is my code:

#include <Python.h>

void initlibPYSTAF();

static PyObject* libPYSTAF_system(PyObject
*self,PyObject * args)
{
    char *command;
    int sts;

    if (!PyArg_ParseTuple(args, "s", &command))
        return NULL;
    sts = system(command);
    return Py_BuildValue("i", sts);
}

static PyMethodDef libPYSTAFMethods[] =
{
    {"system",  libPYSTAF_system, METH_VARARGS},
    {NULL,      NULL}        /* Sentinel */
};

void
initlibPYSTAF()
{
    Py_InitModule("libPYSTAF", libPYSTAFMethods);
}

I'm new to coding, so i probably forgot something
stupid.  If you stop it please tell what it is.

thanks
