Excellent job, Jacque ! I really wish I had had this
document when I first started playing around with the
cgi engine.

Just as an additional note : apart from using stacks
as libraries, the cgi-engine lets you use the database
and XML libraries like in the IDE, which means you can
get and even update data stored in SQL databases, or
even parse XML-RPC calls if you are interested.
And all that in our friendly Transcript programming
language.

Cheers,

Jan Schenkel.
