I'm using WN.  I've written quite a few CGI scripts to run under WN, both
as shell scripts and PHP.  No problems so far.  WN's web page is at

        http://hopf.math.nwu.edu

Seems like when I was just starting out writing CGI scripts I did some
stuff with QUERY_STRING, but I'd have to go back and hunt up some old
notes to find out for sure.

Login page.  I set up WN to listen to port 8080, then I called the
tmda-cgi.cgi program directly from the browser with the following url:

http://192.168.1.23:8080/cgi-bin/tmda-cgi.cgi
