Okay, I've got a CGI app written. There are subtlies that are different than Borland 5 & 6 that I'm used to, but nonetheless it's done. I can't compile because I don't have the data-type correct for setenv() and getenv(). What exactly is __cstring__ in pascal terms? Is it a pointer to a string type, actual string, etc...help!
BTW, I forget and leave one end out during a case statement, and you get errors on just about everything in the file, including errors telling you that the ; at the end of a function blah(data):blahtype is not needed...just FYI.

It's a pointer to an array of chars.
With any GPC that is more recent than gpc-2.0, you can also write `CString' instead of `__CString__', and its support is much more stable in GPC.

I think there is not much we can do against that: A missing `end' destroys the structure of a Pascal program almost completely.
