This module provides for execution of CGI scripts. ... Module Identifier: cgi_module Any file that has the mime type application/x-httpd-cgi or handler cgi-script (Apache 1.1 or later) will be treated as a CGI script, and run by the server, with its output being returned to the client. ... Debugging CGI scripts has traditionally been difficult, mainly because it has not been possible to study the output (standard output and error) for scripts which are failing to run properly. ... Status: mod_cgi . ...

. To redirect the standard output from a command use the > (greater than) symbol followed by the name of the output file. If the file that you redirect standard output to does not already exist it will be created. For example: grep Smith /etc/passwd > popular . This redirects the standard output from the grep command so that it goes to the file popular . This file will contain all occurrences of the string Smith that were found in the /etc/passwd file. **Caution** . Did You Know? .

Next: Rotation Periods of PMS Stars Previous: Direct Monitoring of PMS Stars .

The space between the planets is far from empty. It contains: electromagnetic radiation (photons); hot plasma (electrons, protons and other ions) a.k.a. the solar wind ; cosmic rays; microscopic dust particles; and magnetic fields (primarily the Sun's). While the Sun 's radiation is obvious, the other components of the interplanetary medium were not discovered until very recently. ... Except near some of the planets, interplanetary space is filled with the Sun's magnetic field. ... Sun .. ...

... Interferometric data files handled by CHAMELEON use the HDS (Hierarchical Data System) format, and have an extension .con for point data files output by CONSTRICTOR and .cha for scan-averaged data output by CHAMELEON.
