Why would you take out -w and "use strict"? Don't do that.

That's ok because it will require Date::Calc module which you may not have,
and that will just confuse things while trying to get things running.

Ok, more below.

That has nothing to do with this. the files in the perl directory are for
using the swish-e C library with perl. You don't need that.

Ok, here we go. From scratch:

Edit swish.cgi for date_ranges:
..tapity-tap
~/rich > diff swish.cgi ~/swish-e/example

Now we need a tiny config file:
..tapity-tap
~/rich > cat swish.conf

Let's test the cgi script from the command line:
~/rich > ./swish.cgi | head
Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>
Search our site
</title>
</head>
<body>
Now, let's link it into someplace silly so it works from the outside:
~/rich > ln -s ~/rich ~/hankweb/images
Now tell apache that's it's a CGI script. You may not need this on your
server if .cgi is automatically a CGI script, but I do on my Apache setup:
~/rich > cat .htaccess
<files swish.cgi>
SetHandler cgi-script
</files>
Now, does it work?
~/rich > lynx http://hank.org/images/rich/swish.cgi
