My preferred is mine :) It's part of the EtLinux project, available either as a package in the EtLinux sources or in the CVS of EtTcl (see http://gnu.systemy.it/software/#cvs) It has CGI capabilities and it's 2kB or so. However, it runs in the EtTcl interpreter, which is much bigger than that. In EtLinux we chose to write everything in EtTcl, so the size of the interpreter is not an issue. Note that the main advantage of EtLinux and associated tools is that it calls fork() withtou exec() whenever the child program is written in the same language. This means that it cannot run in uClinux. (On the other hand, for a demo I'm setting up I'll integrate http serving of static pages with a telnet-like server and the whole of init, so I'll have a single process running on the (tiny) system). /alessandro This message resent by the uclinux-dev@uclinux.org list server http://www.uClinux.org/
