   21: Description
   22: ===========
   23: 
   24: CGI programs allow you to enhance the functionality of the server in a very
   25: straight and simple way..

   27: Options
   28: =======
   29: 
   30: cgi.assign
   31: 
   32:   file-extensions that are handled by a CGI program
   33: 
   34:   e.g.: ::
   35: 
   36:     cgi.assign = ( ".pl"  => "/usr/bin/perl",
   37:                    ".cgi" => "/usr/bin/perl" )
   38: 
   39: Examples
   40: ========
   41: 
   42: To setup a executable which doesn't need the help of a external program you
   43: just don't specify a handler for the extension. ::
   44: 
   45:   cgi.assign = ( ".sh" => "" )
   46: 
   47: If the file has no extension keep in mind that lighttpd matches not the
   48: extension itself but the right part of the URL: ::
   49: 
   50:   cgi.assign = ( "/testfile" => "" )
