I find it interesting that you included the HTTP header info:

	Content-type:	text/html

For some reason I thought this was being handled by the "glue". Is it
necessary? (My guess is that it's not.) I suppose my CGI could return a GIF
in which case I might have to force the browser to view it correctly with:

	Content-type:	image/gif

What HTTP header info does the glue supply? Is there any limit to the
headers I can add? Thanks, RR
