Darwin engine and AppleScript in CGI's?

[david bovill]

Can't get this to work at all this end - Darwin engine works fine  
except for alternateLanguage support - dragging  my shiny new  
licensed engine (same name & permissions - but only 1.9mb instead of  
2.6 for Darwin) - gives me internal server errors and

     INIT_Processeses(), could not establish the default connection  
to the WindowServer.

In the log. For me that is even with echo.mt

#!Revolution -ui
# This loops over all the environment variables
# set by the server when it runs a CGI application printing out
# its name and value.

on startup
# loop over all of the global variables, getting name and value
   repeat for each item i in the globals
    put i && "=" && value(i) & return after buffer
end repeat
# write minimal set of HTTP headers to stdout
   put it after buffer
   put "Content-Type: text/plain" & cr
   put "Content-Length:" && the length of buffer & cr & cr
   put buffer
end startup
