Re: CGI::Minimal does not work with enctype="multipart/form-data"?

My guess is that CGI::Minimal was written without support for file uploads, as they are somewhat complex, and not terribly minimal

from the frivolous to the serious

CGI::Minimal documentation says: `Rather than attempt to address every possible need of a CGI programmer, it provides the _minimum_ functions needed for CGI such as form decoding (including file upload forms), URL encoding and decoding, HTTP usable date generation (RFC1123 compliant dates) and _basic_ escaping and unescaping of HTMLized text.` I am rather confused by "functions ... for ... file upload forms". Should I just assume it does NOT support it?	[reply] [d/l]
