Background

I have used Lisp for many different purposes since the mid-eighties

I wanted to find out if Lisp could be used for server side CGI programming

Languages which are often used for CGI programming:
- Perl - a string manipulation language
- C - a system programming language
- Shell Script - hardly a programming language at all

It is quite natural to consider better alternatives

CGI programming is not necessarily imperative programming
