It is your choice whether to run LC Server as a CGI or not:

	Schulz:LiveCodeServer peter$ cat > hr.lc
	<?lc
 		put "Hello Richard. No CGI here"
	?>


	Schulz:LiveCodeServer peter$ ./livecode-server hr.lc
	Hello Richard. No CGI here

You should be able to run the same code as you would run using the Desktop version save for the GUI. I guess the pitfall of this approach is that you can only handle one request at a time.

Hope this helps.
