In other words, you can set your password file to mode 600, but if you
do, put your password in as plain text instead of encrpted text.

Would it help if I made this more clear in the docs?
<<<<<

Yes.  I saw the part about "plain text passwords will not work in such
cases" but did not infer the opposite (that password file marked 600 must
contain plaintext passwords), or that the cases were mutually exclusive.
Also, the doc comment that it works the same way as tofmipd didn't help me
much because I haven't gotten to tofmipd yet...  ;>

Yeah, I know.  I'm pretty sure I created my Pending.py before David
created his, but since he doesn't use tmda-cgi, he didn't realize I
had a file of the same name in a different directory.  I will try to
change this at some point.

Okay.  It's not a huge, earth-shattering problem.  After several years of
success debugging nasty problems, I just get the heebie-jeebies (a technical
term) whenever I see sand traps that human error will just naturally fall
into.  Especially my errors.  ;>

I see that you already worked through this.  Good.  It looks like I'll
need to set up a way to point out where to put images in the
compilation process or something.  Any suggestions, anyone?

Your doc on where to put the files was fine - I had no problem there.  The
part I was missing was how to configure Apache to allow coexistance of
cgi-bin and document files.  I think the default Apache config uses
Script-Alias to cgi-bin, and that does not allow document serving from the
cgi-bin dir or subdirs.  Being lazy, I just dumped tmda-cgi and the /display
subdir into the already-configured cgi-bin directory.  Creating a URL alias
and enabling cgi execution in that subdir of the web site solved the
problem.

Thanks for your help, and for your work on tmda-cgi!  I look forward to
seeing the UI mockups you posted last month implemented in tmda-cgi.
