19. Python

Python is an scripting language similar to Perl or Tcl. Several modules embed Python in the Apache web server:

• Mod Python
• Mod Snake: runs both in Apache 1.3.x and the upcoming 2.0

Both modules would be useful if you plan on writing Apache modules in Python or run existing Python CGIs faster. Mod Snake allows you to embed Python in HTML , much like PHP does.
