[open-cobol-list] Open Cobol as cgi-bin program.

[John Culleton]

I am happy to hear that the new 1.1 has a screen section. But let me 
take a different tack.  I have raised this question before but I 
raise it again because things may have changed.

I have a remote site (linux based) where I can load programs into 
cgi-bin directory and of course load web pages that use these cgi-bin 
entitities elsewhere. The problem then becomes what do I need to load 
into the cgi-bin directory other than the OS Cobol executable?  
Somewhere there is udoubtedly a Cobol runtime program. Is there a way 
to convince the Cobol executable to look for this program in a 
non-traditional place, like the current directory?

Alternatively is there a way to compile a completely stand-alone Cobol 
program, given Linux as the host system?
