No joy in Windows

thttpd sounds like a great little web server. I was dead set on throwing it on Windows together with Perl (ActiveState or cygwin, I don't mind much) and pot.py to make a system to run Movable Type on the desktop and "upstream" the built pages by FTP.

As thttpd is very much UNIX software, it simply executes programs to perform CGI. I then found that thttpd for Windows does the same: simply executes CGI programs to run them, with CreateProcess. On UNIX, any file set executable is executable; text files are run through the appropriate interpreter. On Windows...

Ow.

I don't suppose SFU would help... Hmm. I can probably kludge a Perl-CGI-only version together, just not tonight. Tonight is for sleep.
