Saying you want to use cgi with Python is a little like saying you want to use a bicycle with a jet engine. I do not think anybody uses CGI any more (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1162029/what-are-cgi-scripts-used-for-these-days)
I assume you are interested in building web applications using Python. Than you have come in the right place. :-) web2py is a tool to do exactly that. web2py packages: - a web server (but can work with any other web server: Apache, Nginx, Cherokee, Lightpd, Gunicorn, Tornado, etc.) - a SQL database (but can work with many other databases: Oracle, MSSQL, MySQL, PostgreSQL, etc.) - a web based IDE (but can work with other IDEs: Wingware, Eclipse, PyCharm, Emacs) - the Python interpreter (but you can use your own Python interpreter: CPython, PyPy, 2.5,2.6,2.7) - a lots of modules and utilities to build web applications, expose the database on the web, create forms, login/logout/registration, manage users' access, accept credit card payments, send emails, generate PDF documents, etc. web2py is designed to make web development secure and simple. If you use web2py you do not need anything else. web2py can interface with old legacy web servers using CGI but nobody uses this any more. web2py can interface with modern web servers using SCGI, fastCGI and WSGI. Yet if you use the provided web server, you do not need to know these protocols.
