RE: Has ANYONE gotten Perl CGI to work on the AS/400?

Could this be an RPGLE program?  I was thinking it would be nice to have one
Perl "server" app that you could pass a query string, read it in, then use
that to call the correct Perl app.

Is the path the actual or virtual path?  I'm guessing actual, which then
wouldn't be a very good idea to use as a query string var since you would be
giving away your path.  But you could always tack on more path in the
beginnin, like your own "MAP" directive.
