getting the path in a cgi script

[Kalle Anke]

I know I've done this once before ... I think ... but now I can't figure out
how to do it

I've set my web server to use an alias similar to this

ScriptAlias /xx/ "/Library/WebServer/CGI-Executables/xxx.cgi/"

which makes it possible for me to write

http://127.0.0.1/xx/some/kind/of/path

my problem is that I don't know how to get the 'some/kind/of/path' part of
the URL in my script.

I know that I can do like this in perl

$documentRoot.p ath_info();

but how do I do it in python?

import os
path_info = os.environ.get( "PATH_INFO" )
