2-cent Tip: 'Serve' your current directory

Hello all,
Perhaps this is too simple to be a 2c-tip, but still a tip. 
The following script (either run by hand) or in a script starts up a HTTP server and makes available all the files and directories from which it is started, so as to make them available over the network:
python -m SimpleHTTPServer &
By default, it starts off the server on '8000' but that can be changed using:
python -m SimpleHTTPServer 9090, which starts the server on 9090, and can be accessed via the browser or any HTTP client using:
firefox http://127.0.0.1:8000/
More on the Python module at http://docs.python.org/library/simplehttpserver.html
Thanks, Amit
