You can do that by invoking an interactive Python or JPython shell
inside Emacs (via C-!). Buffers containing Python code or the currently
marked region can be executed inside the shell at any time, which
lets you develop your code very quickly and interactively.

Yes! It looks like I need to pay more attention in Python mode to see
what options are made available to me.

I found "Internet Programming with Python" the better book for this.
It has not much to do with CGI or HTML stuff, but is an extremly good
reference for many things about Python (better than "Programming Python" IMO).

Reorganize your disk (scandisk or ?) then use "fips" to make this
partition small and create a new, free partion from the saved space, then
install LINUX ... ;-)

the disk and installing linux.
