Hi everyone, i have half night thinking without finding a way to do this.

I will try to ask it as easy as i can.

I am trying to find a way to write a CGI, that install a program in a specific directory,
for example,
lets say i have a program called "app", i have both unix and win versions and when the user enter in the setup page, it will promp something like
"Are you sure you want to install app ?
Then the CGI install it in
/usr/sbinin Unix or
C:\WINDOWS\in Windows
The user don't need to specify directory or O.S , just answer yes and the CGI will do the work

Any help will be really welcome
thanx
