No. (But to be fair if you wanted to test it personally you'd have to know
how to use Unix and configure Apache...only this has no hints on how to do
either.)

That's what I'm trying to send...the idea is for someone else (maybe robsz1,
since he knows the most about apache on this list afaik) to get the code,
set up apache and install the proxy code, and verify that it works.
That person could go as far as install the proxy on a remote linux box
on the internet, so you could do what you want (get an url and go there
to verify it yourself). I can't do that, I dont have a linux box
exposed on the net right now...so I want to give the code away so some else
who is in a better position than I can do it.

I could do all of that ... there's little point, since you yourself
would not be able use the code I'd be sending directly, you'd need someone
else to install it for you on the remote linux box (not *nix mind you) ....
once installed you could _configure_ it yourself ... but you need
to know basic *nix and Apache to even install the proxy code properly.
And you have already made clear that you do not want to learn those skills.

I concur. The *nix world could be a friendlier place to busy newbies ....
although I doubt your attitude helped much either.

I didn't do this for the money. I did this to try to help you. But if this
is the thanks I get, maybe I was mistaken to even try.
Anyways, here is a link so someone can download the code and robsz1's test
pages, its all together in a neat bundle:
http://www.geocities.com/jbrown1050/katprog_tar_gz.html
Someone install linux on a box, install apache, delete the default apache
web site and extract this to the default dir (which was /home/httpd for me),
install euphoria, and then edit the apache config file to support using
exu programs as cgi scripts. (Not kat tho.) Then the whole thing should work
without a hitch. (Almost forgot, you need to tell the katprog program
what it is relaying (ip and port) but by kat's standards, that should be
implied.)
