Kiitos täästä!  Erittäin kiva idee.  Obviously this sed-based approach
is viable for a narrow slice of people, but in general this is a mindset
that I would like to see become part of "Gemini culture", i.e. embracing
constraints and coming up with creative ways to work within them.

I've added this to the software list, and while I was at it, broke all
CGI applications (at least the ones I recognised as being CGI
applications) out into their own section.  If you've written a CGI tool
for Gemini and I don't have it listed, please let me know.

Cheers,
Solderpunk
