John/et al.:
This is neat and fixes a problem that I've been uncertain how to resolve
for some time--when new users of my applescript CGIs download the OSAXen
and install them, they probably don't restart their web servers before
running the CGI. Adding just one benign line seems like it would eliminate
this problem. However, before I add a "run script '5'" to all my CGI run
handlers, is there a downside to doing this? Otherwise it seems like it
might be a very good thing to do as a standard part of startup for any
applet that might be distributed to others?
