The fcgi.py Python module handles communication with the FastCGI module of the Apache or Stronghold web server without using the FastCGI developers kit, but will also work in a non-FastCGI environment, (straight CGI.) This module was originally fetched from someplace on the Net (I don't remember where and I can't find it now...) and has been significantly modified to fix several bugs, be more readable, more robust at handling large CGI data and return document sizes, and also to fit the model that we had previously used for FastCGI.
