To make www.ugcs.caltech.edu better and faster, the web servers are now

the owner. Files located in ~/www/cgi (symlinks are followed) or have an
extension of .cgi will be treated as scripts.
Since cgiwrap is not used anymore, /home/<user>/www/cgi/myscript should now
be referred to as http://www.ugcs.caltech.edu/~<user>/cgi/myscript.
