Im planning on getting some space soon to host a website which i would like
to use REBOL for some CGI scripts.

There tech support admitted that they had'nt heard of REBOL and they
were'nt sure if it would be ok on the system as they dont allow new Apache
modules (cobalt servers, it would go against the warranty apparently).

Could I just do my scripts like this:
��� 
        #!/path/to/rebol --cgi
        REBOL [
�������   Title: "CGI Test Script"
        ]

where the first line would tell where the rebol interpreter was (my cgi-bin
I guess) ? REBOL on quite a lot of platforms enough so hopefully it will
run on whatever they use!

Also, I've seen some perl scripts which use "sendmail". Can you execute
other programs in REBOL (I would'nt think so due to probs with cross
platform). Would I have to find out their SMTP server and configure rebol
to use it via set-net ?

I think I know the answer to both questions (1. wont need module and will
work, 2. can't use sendmail prog) But I better make sure before dishing out
the money :)
