   Note: This [3]CGI is for [4]Linux running a kernel of the [5]2.2.X
   series or newer!
   
   w3cam is a simple CGI to retrieve images from a so called video4linux
   device. In other words this program will only run on Linux machines
   which support a video4linux-device.
   
   w3cam supports a plain mode and a gui mode. In the gui mode a html
   with a form is supplied to change some parameters with the mouse ..
   
     * Supported output formats: [6]PNG, [7]JPEG and PPM
     * Screen dumps in GUI mode [8]double.jpg
     * Installation: run 'configure & make install' and edit the
       installed w3cam.cgi.scf file for the runtime configuration.
     * Usage: Install the CGI and then call {url}/w3cam.cgi?help
     * Download source code: [9]w3cam-0.7.2.tar.gz
     * Needed Libraries: [10]libz, libpng, libjpeg
     * Checkout [11]ChangeLog for changes since the last release.
     * Tips:
          + Don't use refresh=0 if you are not the only one, who want to
            access the video, cause this will lock the v4l device.
          + Set refresh=-1 if the image is NOT embedded in a
            [12]HTML-page (or set it at compile time as the default or at
            runtime in the configuration file).
          + Use w3cam.css to change the layout (don't forget to install
            and define the URL in the config file..)
     * Problems?: [13]Mini FAQ, and also consult the included
       documentation and HTML samples.
