I need help getting Ocamlnet to work at a basic level.
I tried running the script from the command-like to more easily access
diagnostic output. What should the shebang line say? Right now I have
the following (mostly) paste of the demo script, plus shebang line;
when I run it from within apache I get an internal server error. (A
copy of the command line output follows the script).

CamlGI code has been integrated into the Netcgi component
< https://gps.dynxs.de/wwwsvn/trunk/code/src/netcgi/?root=lib-ocamlnet2>
of OcamlNet-2 <https://gps.dynxs.de/openapps/svnindex.cgi>, please use
that instead.

You can find examples in the examples/ directory (add.ml is a very
simple one). As for the specific example you desire, it is attached.
It is maybe a bit more complex that you expected because it
demonstrates additional features (text escaping, setting the header,
buffered output).
Hope it helps,
