Hi Phil,
A cron job needs a correct terminal command. If you can type it in your terminal (e.g. over ssh) and don't need to enter a password and other additional information then you can also use it as a cron job. I wonder if it would work if you start your script with
#!/path/to/lc/server
<?lc put "Hello World" ?>
A cgi script should include a path too:
#!/path/to/cgi/engine
put "hello world"
