Sorry. The last one I worked with was - |
| 14 |
- dependant upon some obscure layer on top of perl, no longer maintained. |
| 15 |
- used tricks to avoid typing clean code. |
| 16 |
- written by people no longer around when I tried to make it work. |
| 17 |
- broken by updates to both the system, perl, various CPAN modules and |
| 18 |
relied on the web server being Netscape Enterprise. |
| 19 |
- Dedicated to IRIX systems. |
