The modules described in this chapter provide various services to
|
|
World-Wide Web (WWW) clients and/or services, and a few modules
|
|
related to news and email. They are all implemented in Python. Some
|
|
of these modules require the presence of the system-dependent module
|
|
\code{sockets}, which is currently only fully supported on Unix and
|
|
Windows NT. Here is an overview:
