CGI paramaters are set in the environment. On Unix, in an sh-like
shell, do:
QUERY_STRING='TERM1=hello&FIELD1=TTL&TERM2=goodby&FIELD2=GOVT'
www.webserver.com/script.cgi
Depending on the package you're using for handling CGI, you may need
to set other CGI parameters as well. The traceback from trying this
should give you a KeyError naming the environment variable it's
looking for.
