Hi All.

I want to serve a binary files to an HTTP client (like wget) from a CGI script,
is that posssible?

The plan is to have one/some of my machines requesting files over the network
and have the CGI script on the server coordinating the cd-draw to change
discs depending on the path the script gets.

I'm guessing the script should emit something like

Content-type:application-octet-stream

and some other stuff (but what?)
