accessing Python cgi-bin?

Hi everyone!
I'm just beginning Python and I wanted to move on to making Web applications with it, however I've run into some problems.. I know that my files have to be saved in the cgi-executables directory but I don't know how to access them when I have made them. I try typing into the the address bar "localhost/cgi-bin/*file name*.cgi" but it just says error 404. I have Xampp installed and it also has a cgi-bin but I tried starting Apache on Xampp and running it but it still didn't work. What am I doing wrong? It seems that the browser can't even recognize that there is a cgi directory. I'm using a Mac by the way, 10.7
Thanks for all your help!
