  • Description: A low profile, home brewed web-based CGI featuring On/Off/ commands, and Cron support. Great for mobile phone viewing because of its compact design.

  • Features: Easy to navigate control panel. A Cron front-end that even your grandmother could use. Error checking with smart PID termination. Easy to read config file. Super fast and super light-weight. No PHP, no database, no Apache, no extra libs. Currently there is minimal support for scenes allowing you to control several appliances at once. A very basic html cgi to change the look and feel.
  • Requirements: Heyu and a compatible operating system, up-to-date version of GNU Bash, Included is a compiled 32 bit version and a 64 bit version of the xitami web server. I packaged xitami so to make use of this CGI easy and uncomplicated. Optionally you can use Apache or any other web server that supports CGI. Also the the source for xitami is here.

  • Who am I and why I did this:
My name is Kris and I live in Georgia. I enjoy computing as a hobby. My real job is electrical work. I have been using linux for 3 or 4 years steadily now but have experimented with alternate operating systems for the paste 10 years. From QNX to Beos and Suse to Manrake ( Mandriva ). Currently I use Ubuntu.

I own a Harley Davidson and ride it to the local coffee shop for fun or sometimes just to the park. I haven't gone on any long tours yet. But maybe one day. I have some college education but never finished. Also I play guitar and other instruments for hobby. No rock and roll bands, at least not yet.

Oh almost forgot.. you might be wondering why I wrote this CGI. Well, its a learning experience to say the least. I'm a little partial to Bash for some reason. I really can't program that well and scripting seems to be a bit intriguing yet not mind blowing like python. I've used X10 in the past and had some ideas what should be done with my CGI, yet to be honest I am totally surprised at how nice it has turned out. Well there you go. Hope you have enjoyed my little web page.
