DESCRIPTION

More to come soon as I have big plans for this space. Basically I still write one-off cgi-scripts from time-to-time and deploy them in various environments. Sometimes dependencies are a problem, sometimes they're not, ... the point is I don't mind working in these evironments and writing cgi-scripts but I would like do so easily and more efficiently.

So currently (hopefully not for long), tinycgi wraps CGI::Application and does a bunch of setup stuff for you. I have a bigger picture in mind but I don't care to dump it in POD atm, although it may look something like ....

(fatpack file; cat tinycgi.pm) >tinycgi.pm
wget http://tinycgi.pm
chmod 0644 tinycgi.pm
curl http://localhost/cgi-bin/test.pl
