I want to generate a CSR without prompts.  The reason is so that the CSR
can be generated from a web based script form.  I could pipe in answers
to the prompts, but based on past experience doing things like this, this
is not the proper solution since in the future, the order of prompts or
what is prompted for might change.  The data could be provided in a file,
in environment variables, on a command line, or piped in with some kind
of identifier paired with each item.

Can someone direct me to a document that explains this?  The man pages
for various openssl commands don't explain this part at all.  The web
site has even less that what comes with the openssl-0.9.6e distribution.

Or do I just need to tear apart the "openssl req" command source, find
what library calls it does, and just call the library myself, and thus
re-invent the wheel?  Has anyone already done this?
