[mod_python] How do you use mod_python?

I was hoping modpython would give me a fast way of running python
programs -- sort of like a fastcgi but focused on python programs.

Yet, I've not seen any documentation on setting this up (I admit I
have not done exhaustive reading, but I don't recall seeing this in
the howto's I've looked at).

can modpython be used as a fast way of doing execcgi and other calling
python programs from the web?  I don't think I want to create an
apache handler for this? or do I?
