DESCRIPTION

       cgi_init  initializes the ClearSilver CGI environment, including creating the HDF data set.  It will then

       data, cgi_init will attempt to validate the value and launch the configured debugger on the CGI  program.
       These variables have to be specified in the hdf_file pointed to by hdf_file.  The default settings do not
       allow debugger launching for security reasons.

RETURN VALUE
