I would, but communitech is too good a deal otherwise (350 MB,
unlimited transfer, telnet, cgi, MySQL, Excite, Real, etc., for
$20/mo.).

I haven't actually asked them to un-cripple python for me, so maybe I
should at least request that.
Even if I was just using MacPython on my machine, I don't know of a
way to build a list of installed modules other than by scanning the
directory. Is there any kind of method (or maybe even a module?) that
just tells you which modules are available in a particular
installation? Thanks.
