Description

Just a hint for the django-users that use windows and apache(2.2): The PythonPath has to be escaped twice,
such as the following:

PythonPath " e:\\\\dev\\\\django\\\\project + sys.path"

Otherwise django will not find the settings-file.

Sorry for the aweful formatting. Here more readable:

PythonPath "[e:\\\\dev\\\\django\\\\project] + sys.path"

Triage Stage: UnreviewedReady for checkin

Agreed that this would be a good thing to add as a note for windows users to the [source:/django/trunk/docs/modpython.txt mod_python documentation]. Marking as ready for checkin, as this is a trivial addition.
