acgi dispatcher is a program that enables you to use acgi programs written in AppleScript or other Apple Event aware languages to write cgi programs to be run with the Apache web server that is part of Mac OS X.

acgi dispatcher runs as a background process on Mac OS X so it does not need to clutter your screen with windows and dock icons if you don't wish to see them.

It also has the capability to run and serve pages while your machine is logged out. Installation is drag and drop and requires no manual editing of unix config files.

Limitations:
30 days demo.

What's New:
The Handle CGI event now contains all the parameters that are defined by the standard scripting addition. This means that many scripts that failed to work in the previous version due to missing parameters should work now.
Now supports OSX Server, Apache 2, or other customized web server installs.
The installation no longer adds information to the apache config file, so there is no danger of the settings getting overwritten when using Apple's own OSX Server apache configuration tools.
