I just tested it and yes it does work from command line

script:

Code:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use CGI qw(:standard);
use CGI qw(:standard Vars);
use CGI::Carp qw(warningsToBrowser fatalsToBrowser);
use File::Basename;
use lib dirname(__FILE__);
use CreateExam;

my $cgi = CGI->new(\*STDIN);

print $cgi->header();
print $cgi->start_html("test");

my $check = CreateExam->new("/var/www/roger/homeworks/hw13/exam4.txt","/var/www/roger/homeworks/hw13/answers4.txt","/var/www/roger/homeworks/hw13/grades4.txt",0);

print "<p>\n";
print $check->tooktest("dancksj");
print "</p>\n";

print $cgi->end_html();
exit;

output:

Code:

jddancks@debian-macbook:/var/www/roger/homeworks/hw13$ ./testcmdline.pl

</head>
<body>

</body>
</html>

I also tested it in the browser and it worked there as well. I copy/pasted

Code:

my $check = CreateExam->new("/var/www/roger/homeworks/hw13/exam4.txt","/var/www/roger/homeworks/hw13/answers4.txt","/var/www/roger/homeworks/hw13/grades4.txt",0);

right from submit.cgi
