Description
-----------

:Homepage:
    http://redmine.lighttpd.net/projects/scgi-cgi/wiki

scgi-cgi is a SCGI application to run normal cgi applications. It doesn't
make CGI applications faster, but it allows you to run them on a different
host and with different user permissions (without the need for suexec).

scgi-cgi is released under the `MIT license <http://git.lighttpd.net/scgi-cgi.git/tree/COPYING>`_

Usage
-----

Examples for spawning a scgi-cgi instance with daemontools or runit::

  #!/bin/sh
  # run script

  exec spawn-scgi -n -s /var/run/scgi-cgi.sock -u www-default -U www-data -- /usr/bin/scgi-cgi
