There is something more I want to add: the bitness of the machine. >>> platform.architecture() ('64bit', 'WindowsPE') Display as '(64 bit)' or '(32 bit). For the moment, add this to the title since it will not necessarily fit after python version. See the doc note about Macs. The reason has to do with import problems people report on Stackoverflow. One possible reason is having multiple interpreters, only some of which have a 3rd party module. Another is mismatched architecture. At the same time, change the fg/bg to Mark's suggestion.
