NAME

       mapserv - mapserver CGI interface

SYNOPSIS

       mapserv [-v | [-nh] QUERY_STRING=" QUERY_STRING" ]

DESCRIPTION

       mapserv provides commandline access to the MapServer CGI interface.

OPTIONS

       -v     Display mapserver version and build options.

       -nh    Suppress HTTP headers.

       QUERY_STRING="QUERY_STRING"
              CGI                  QUERY_STRING                  parameter,                  e.g.
              QUERY_STRING="MAP=/home/user/wfs.map&SERVICE=WFS&REQUEST=GetCapabilities"

EXAMPLE

       The CGI interface can be tested at the commandline by  using  the  "QUERY_STRING"  switch,
       such as:

              mapserv "QUERY_STRING=map=/home/user/wms.map&mode=map"

       To suppress the HTTP headers, you can use the "-nh" switch, such as:

              mapserv -nh "QUERY_STRING=map=/home/user/wms.map&mode=map"

       To save the output into an image file, use the pipe command such as:

              mapserv -nh "QUERY_STRING=map=/home/user/wms.map&mode=map" > test.png
