riff on name

environment

If you set general.cgi, ssc will check these environment variables:

QUERY_STRING CGI command, intended for use with OpenBSD’s httpd server. See notes below.
SSC_CONFIG If no configuration file is given on the command line, use this one.
SSC_ARGS Preliminary command line parameters.

If, when ssc is run, the environment variable QUERY_STRING is set to an OpenBSD httpd server CGI value that includes the parameter html.snippet, then ssc will nitpick that snippet only. As the name suggests, the snippet must be HTML. Certain other parameters are processed, including general.verbose and html.version.
