Oh, it runs fine as an application, just not importably.

Heh. No, I'm actually finally getting around to rewriting something in
Python. It's been called 1 for as long as it's ever existed, having
made the jump from a flat file in my personal directory to a web site,
and since then from MySQL to PostgreSQL, and finally now I'm getting
rid of the last artefact of the old web host by ditching PHP. Yes, I
wrote it in PHP because it was hosted on a server that didn't support
Python, and when I moved everything onto my own server, I didn't
rewrite it. But that's no excuse for changing the name now :)

Now, I could of course rename the .py files while still having it at
/1/ on the site, but that's cheating. :)
