Revolution is a great development tool for desktop applications. But it can also be run as a CGI on your server which means you can quickly write scripts for use on the web using the syntax you know and love.

This tutorial shows the steps I went through to install the Revolution Linux engine on our Debian Linux server.

For more detailed information on Revolution and CGI check out this article by Jacqueline Landman Gay of HyperActive Software.

To get the standalone (engine), you can sign up for the beta-test program at http://support.runrev.com/beta_test.php.
