  Description     : CGI scripting program for embedded environments

Haserl is a small cgi wrapper that allows "PHP" style cgi programming, but uses
a UNIX bash-like shell or Lua as the programming language. It is very small, so
it can be used in embedded environments, or where something like PHP is too
big.
.
It combines three features into a small cgi engine:
 * It parses POST and GET requests, placing form-elements as name=value
   pairs into the environment for the CGI script to use.  This is somewhat like
   the uncgi wrapper.
 * It opens a shell, and translates all text into printable statements. All
   text within <% ... %> constructs are passed verbatim to the shell. This is
   somewhat similar to how PHP scripts are parsed.
 * It can optionally be installed to drop its permissions to the owner of the
   script, giving it some of the security features of suexec or cgiwrapper.
