a web server from 1995

This is a web server I wrote in C++ in early 1995. It very likely does not work today. I wrote it for the startup I worked for at the time, Destiny Software Corporation. It ran our corporate site for a few years. I originally developed it under SunOS 4.1.3 on a sparc-2 (iirc), and later ported it to Solaris.

The purpose of this was to make writing cgi programs easier by providing better abstraction and structure. The cgi abstraction I called "SURL" (for 'server url') described and implemented here was never completed in this server because it quickly evolved into a full blown programming language and application server in the subsequenst projects RSL and Granite Foundation (RSL 2). There, it interacted with other web servers instead. See metaURL.txt.

this is old junk

but it's here because I wrote it. FYI.
