This is what my httpd is:
# ScriptAlias: This controls which directories contain server scripts.
# ScriptAliases are essentially the same as Aliases, except that
# documents in the realname directory are treated as applications and
# run by the server when requested rather than as documents sent to the client.
# The same rules about trailing "/" apply to ScriptAlias directives as to
# Alias.
#
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin "c:/apache/cgi-bin"
#
# "c:/apache/cgi-bin" should be changed to whatever your ScriptAliased
# CGI directory exists, if you have that configured.
#
<Directory "c:/apache/cgi-bin">
AllowOverride None
Options None
</Directory>
<Directory C:/apache/cgi-bin>
Options ExecCGI
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl
</Directory>
#
# Redirect allows you to tell clients about documents which used to exist in
# your server's namespace, but do not anymore. This allows you to tell the
# clients where to look for the relocated document.
# Format: Redirect old-URI new-URL
#
AND HERE IS THE OTHER PART
# AddHandler allows you to map certain file extensions to "handlers",
# actions unrelated to filetype. These can be either built into the server
# or added with the Action command (see below)
#
# If you want to use server side includes, or CGI outside
# ScriptAliased directories, uncomment the following lines.
#
# To use CGI scripts:
#
AddHandler cgi-script cgi
AddHandler cgi-script pl
AddType application/x-httpd-cgi .script
#
# To use server-parsed HTML files
#
AddType text/html .shtml
AddHandler server-parsed .shtml
#
# Uncomment the following line to enable Apache's send-asis HTTP file
# feature
#
AddHandler send-as-is asis
#
# If you wish to use server-parsed imagemap files, use
#
AddHandler imap-file map
#
# To enable type maps, you might want to use
#
AddHandler type-map var
#
# Action lets you define media types that will execute a script whenever
# a matching file is called. This eliminates the need for repeated URL
# pathnames for oft-used CGI file processors.
Action media/type /cgi-script/cgi-bin/
Action handler-name /cgi-script/cgi-bin/
