(* 
   This module provides support functions for writing CGI scripts and
   ML Server Page scripts.

   [wseq] is the type of efficiently concatenable word sequences.
   Building an HTML page (functionally) as a wseq is more efficient
   than building it (functionally) as a string, and more convenient
   and modular than building it (imperatively) by calling print.

   [Empty] represents the empty string "".

   [Nl] represents the string "\n" consisting of a single newline character.

   [$ s] represents the string s.

   [$$ ss] represents the string String.concat(ss).

   [&&(ws1, ws2)] represents the concatenation of the strings
   represented by ws1 and ws2.  The function && should be declared
        infix &&

   [prmap f xs] is f x1 && ... && f xn evaluated from left to right, 
   when xs is [x1, ..., xn].

   [prsep sep f xs] is f x1 && sep && ... && sep && f xn, evaluated
   from left to right, when xs is [x1, ..., xn].

   [flatten ws] is the string represented by ws.

   [printseq ws] is equivalent to print(flatten ws), but avoids
   building any new strings.

   [vec2list vec] is a list of the elements of vector vec.  Use it to
   convert e.g. the results of a database query into a list, for
   processing with prmap or prsep.


   Shorthands for accessing CGI parameters:

   [%? fnm] returns true if there is a string associated with CGI
   parameter fnm; otherwise returns false.

   [% fnm] returns a string associated with CGI parameter fnm if there
   is any; raises ParamMissing(fnm) if no strings are associated with
   fnm.  Equivalent to
       case Mosmlcgi.cgi_field_string fnm of 
           NONE   => raise ParamMissing "fnm"
         | SOME v => v
   In general, multiple strings may be associated with a CGI parameter; 
   use Mosmlcgi.cgi_field_strings if you need to access all of them.

   [%# fnm] returns the integer i if there is a string associated with
   CGI parameter fnm, and that string is parsable as ML integer i.
   Raises ParamMissing(fnm) if no string is associated with fnm.
   Raises NotInt(fnm, s) if there is a string but it is not parsable
   as an ML int.

   [%%(fnm, dflt)] returns a string associated with CGI parameter fnm
   if there is any; otherwise returns the string dflt.

   [%%#(fnm, dflt)] returns the integer i if there is a string
   associated with CGI parameter fnm, and that string is parsable as
   an ML int; otherwise returns the string dflt.
