Web.py as CGI

Step 1: Main Files
Upload web.py, flup, and your code.py to /public_html/

Step 2: CHMOD
CHMOD code.py 755

Step 3: .htaccess
This .htaccess file works great for me:

AddHandler cgi-script .py

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine on

    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/css
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/images
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/scripts
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/templates
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/favicon.ico$
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/sitemap.xml$
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^(/.*)+code.py/
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ code.py/$1 [PT]
</IfModule>

Step 4: There Is No Step 4
Go to http://yoursite.com or http://sub.yoursite.com to see it in action!

"...but ASO support FastCGI!"

I haven't had much time to delve into FCGI on ASO. This thread on the ASO forums might be of use to anyone who makes an attempt.
