Wetware/llyrisWeb version 0.01 ====================================== This is the first in some extensions to simplify our own use of the Lyris 4.2 list server - and it requires that the lyris LCP perl interface is available on the machine that you run this module..

The first puts up a brain stoopid query page. The submit button will set the param('ourInputStrings'); The second is the response page portion - given @strings to go searching through the lyris emaillists for, it will construct the results of that query in html and ship it back. The third is for command line running on your Lyris Host so that one merely passes in at the command line the $tokens that you wish to search for. TIMTOWTDI EXAMPLES The simple CGI front end would be something like: if ( $request =~ /GET/ ) { dtk_show_query_page($QUERY_PAGE_TITLE); } elsif ( $request =~ /POST/) { my $stuff = param('ourInputStrings'); my @string = split(' ', $stuff); show_answerPage($RESPONSE_PAGE_TITLE, @string); } The simple Command Line Script Would Be: #!/usr/bin/perl -w use Wetware::llyrisWeb qw/parse_cmd_line/; parse_cmd_line(@ARGV); EXPORT None by default.
