CGI ouput goes to the web page by default, ok as content type text/plain but that is usually a bit drab; ok in a frame, maybe. Command output needs a little post-processing to be friendly to the middle of a text/html page in a <PRE> element.
This might suffice for canned or minimal-input scripts. I you need to process input of any complexity, you probably want PERL or JAVA or such, as you need a URL-decode for input. There are wrappers and servers that put the form variables somewhere in the environment, so shell can more easily process them. I wrote one -- everything is a shell scripted service, form variable x becomes environmental variable $h_x. The log file is executable and starts with the f0llowing prefix so it is a service that can dump itself!

DESCRIPTION
The line command copies one line, up to and including a newline, from standard input and writes it to standard output. Use this command
within a shell command file to read from your terminal. The line command always writes at least a newline character.

EXAMPLES
To read a line from the keyboard and append it to a file, enter: echo 'Enter comments for the log:' echo ': c' line >>log
This shell procedure displays the message: Enter comments for the log:
It then reads a line of text from the keyboard and adds it to the end of the file log. The echo ': c' command displays a : (colon)
prompt. See the echo command for information about the c escape sequence.
