I have written the CGI specification into a set of HTML documents, at URL
http://hoohoo.ncsa.uiuc.edu/cgi/

Per the discussion, I have changed it so that ISINDEX queries have their
query string decoded, but no others. Additionally, the path information is
no longer sent on the command line, only in environment variables.

I'd like to make this last call before the interface is set in stone. I have
implemented most of the specification for the next version of NCSA httpd, and
haven't hit any major snags, which is a good sign. The night is still young,
though.
