Richard ,
I've only used the Rev engine on Linux and BSD, never on Windows
servers
yet.
Anything tricky about using it on Win as a CGI, or should it be
about as
straightforward as on Linux?

The only time I used Rev cgi on a Win server, it was as easy and
straightforward
as on Linux, except that I never managed to interface it with mySQL
and had to
write 2 short PHP scripts for that...
My experience was pretty straightforward too. (A lot easier than on OS
X) But I had to use a special engine version. At that time distributed
by Metacard, and I think it was about engine version 2.4 in terms of
functionality. I don't know if Rev distributes an up-to-date version
of this, or whether the normal engine can be used these days.
Below are some old instructions I wrote for setting it up. (In this
case, the executable was named cmc.exe)
It [the folder where you place the scripts] should be set as a
"virtual folder" under IIS. The "execute permissions" should be set
appropriately to allow script execution. The ".mt" extension should
be configured to map to the cgi executable (see below). Under IIS,
the "executable path" for the cgi engine should be set like this
(but the path will depend on where you locate the cmc.exe engine):
C:\mc_cgi\cmc.exe %s %s
You can "limit" the verbs to "GET,POST".
Cheers
Dave
