Re: [MacPerl] CGI.pm and MacPerl

Hi to all,

I speak somewhat out of my depth here as one who uses CGI.pm heavily and
only make this observation from subjective experience, not objective
testing. CGI.pm is an extremely powerful package and I depend on it for
many interactive features on my site. On the other hand I also have
Brenner's cgi-lib.pl in my MacPerl library and I find that it's
functionality is a significant subset of CGI.pm with the added advantage
that (subjectively) there is a much smaller overhead when I invoke it. A
script such as yours could easily be served by cgi-lib.pl  Since you don't
mention it in your email, I suppose that you haven't tried it, so here's
the URL. Apologies if you knew all this already. I'm very interested in
other people's solutions.
