That's odd. Normally, for a CGI wrapper script, the SCRIPT_NAME is
already set to the name of your wrapper, i.e. the CGI script referenced
in the action="..." parameter of the <form> tag. This environment
variable is passed on to the $(CGI) template variable used in the result
templates' follow-up search form, and also passed on to the page links
in $(PAGELIST).
In any case, you can override this by setting the script_name attribute
in your .conf file to what you want. This feature is used for PHP wrappers,
which have a different calling convention than CGI, but you could use it
in your case too. You could also set the SCRIPT_NAME environment variable
yourself in your wrapper script - whichever is easier.
If your wrapper script provides something new that's not already covered
in FAQ 4.7 & 4.11, or the examples they reference, then it might make a
great addition to our contrib section.
