[Benzoa]

backend to what? and _in_ what? (executable? script? batch? perl? php?)

 #!/bin/sh
echo "Content-type: text/plain"
echo
echo "Hello World"

CGI can be written in any language that supports stream output and execution via a shell. A few examples would include:

#!/usr/bin/env perl
print "Content-Type: text/plain\r\n\r\nHello, world";

#!/usr/bin/env python
print "Content-Type: text/plain\r\n\r\nHello, world"

#!/usr/bin/env php
<?php header('Content-Type: text/plain'); ?>
Hello, world

#!/usr/bin/env tclsh
echo "Content-Type: text/plain\r\n\r\nHello, world"

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
  printf("Content-Type: text/plain\r\n\r\nHello, world");
  return 0;
}

#include <iostream>

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
  std::cout << "Content-Type: text/plain\r\n\r\nHello, world";
  return 0;
}

section .data
  txt db "Content-Type: text/plain", 0xD, 0xA, 0xD, 0xA, "Hello, world"
  txtlen equ $ - txt

section .text
  global _start
_start:
  mov edx, txtlen
  mov ecx, txt
  mov ebx, 1
  mov eax, 4
  int 0x80

  mov ebx, 0
  mov eax, 1
  int 0x80

The latter three must obviously be compiled/assembled and linked before use.

Are we doing kid's homework now? ROTF

I presumed that the example was to help him/her, rather than being the whole assignment. Was I wrong?

I don't know, just the feeling I got when I read the OP. Seen it a few times from tech schools, specially from first assignments or finals due.. they come in and want something "explained" to them, then they continue to ask questions like they don't get it until someone just comes and posts the whole thing, they then copy that and turn it in.

Not saying that is what is happening here, just a feeling I got
