Module CGIHTTPServer
CGI-savvy HTTP Server.
This module builds on SimpleHTTPServer by implementing GET and POST
requests to cgi-bin scripts.
If the os.fork() function is not present (e.g. on Windows),
os.popen2() is used as a fallback, with slightly altered semantics; if
that function is not present either (e.g. on Macintosh), only Python
scripts are supported, and they are executed by the current process.
In all cases, the implementation is intentionally naive -- all
requests are executed sychronously.
SECURITY WARNING: DON'T USE THIS CODE UNLESS YOU ARE INSIDE A FIREWALL
-- it may execute arbitrary Python code or external programs.
Note that status code 200 is sent prior to execution of a CGI script,
so scripts cannot send other status codes such as 302 (redirect).
