1. Never a console
I have a major problem. When using Exw.exe I get a console window even when
I don't want it.
I'm using it for cgi-bin on a server. I must be sure they will not get any
window, not even for a second, at all.
How do I do this ? It must be able somehow, because if it isn't Euphoria
couldn't be used for cgi-bin. So, please, Robert: if it isn't possible:
*MAKE* it possible.
I've tried everything .. but because its cgi-bin, I am forced to use
standard input & output.
The only work around I can imagine is store the input & the output and use a
perl program to procces it.
Thanx in advance,
Ralf N.

For a cgi program, you should always use ex or exu, never exw. When =
calling a program from your cgi script, use
junk =3D system_exec(progname_and_parameters,2)
to avoid a console window.

Thanx, Chris!
However, it removes the console, which was happening automatically because
the input & output are caught by the sytem. The problem is, the server can't
have a window flashing by whenever a cgi-script is run. I will get kicked
off within minutes.
Does any one know perl ? Perhaps I could use a perlscript which started the
euphoria program and then use a file for input & output, etc.
