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

Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
</head>
<body>
<p>
1</p>

</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

UPSIMAGE.CGI(8) 						    NUT Manual							   UPSIMAGE.CGI(8)

NAME
upsimage.cgi - Image-generating helper for upsstats.cgi SYNOPSIS
upsimage.cgi Note As a CGI program, this should be invoked through your web server. If you run it from the command line, it will either complain about unauthorized access or spew a PNG at you. DESCRIPTION
upsimage.cgi generates the graphical bars that make up the right side of the page generated by upsstats.cgi(8). These represent the current battery charge, utility voltage, and UPS load where available. The images are in PNG format, and are created by linking to Boutell's excellent gd library. ACCESS CONTROL
upsstats will only talk to upsd(8) servers that have been defined in your hosts.conf(5). If it complains about "Access to that host is not authorized", check that file first. FILES
hosts.conf(5) SEE ALSO
