Re: Plain CGI with Lua

[gary ng <garyng2000@...>]

you don't need anything if it is plain CGI.

just do a :

popen('env')

would get you the necessary thing. Though if you
really want, you can use my forked() fastcgi/cgi
loader which do this for you without a new sh and it
supports fastcgi too. of just grab the lfcgi.so from
kepler.

As for HTML parsing, it is not too difficult given
lua's power.

though wsapi is not too heavy so I would say use that.
