In order to generate the contents of the CGI directory (../CGI) run ./createCGI.sh This script svn deletes the old CGI directory's contents, generates new cgi files in the CGI directory, copies in some other files that are needed, and commits all these changes to svn. There is currently something very nasty in the permissions column in the file OtherFilesToCopy.csv Until version 2.6 of python, there appears to be no convenient way to convert a string like 0755 into an octal. I am therefore using integers to specify permissions of the copied files... 420 is 0644 493 is 0755 This is horrid, and must change in the future...
