Is it possible to program CGI's on non-unix boxes such as Mac servers? Can
anyone point me at some information on how to go about this?
Is there any documentation that I could read about the forthcoming
implementation of QT4 in Metacard. I have a project that I need to complete
by Spring 2000 and am considering using Metacard.
Is there anything in the forthcoming release that would support:
1) Authoring of Quicktime movies
2) Live streaming movies?

Transitions are really a special case because you can use them without
having a "movie" at all (you just give QT two images and a transition,
and it just does it). As such, it wouldn't involve the player object
and would be wired to the "visual effect" command instead. This is
