Ok, 3 things:

I originally had binmode in there ... but took it out after forgetting to keeping it in.

I used CGI.pm for the parsing ... hmm.

Yes, I did not use taint checking, I admit it.

This was just a quick utility based on someone's idea, I have no intention of adding or subracting to it as of this moment, but thanks for the delayed response, ajt.
