Hi - is there a document anywhere that says what each of the scripts in the CGI-BIN does?

TIA
Regards
DAvid

I'll do my best:

ca00000n.pl - 'cart' - controls adding items to the shopping cart, and displaying the shopping cart page
os00000n.pl - 'order script' manages the checkout process and order creation
bb00000n.pl - 'b2b' - manages logging in and price schedules
ss00000n.pl - 'search script' - controls the search
cm00000n.pl - 'cart manager' that manages the items within the cart
md00000n.pl - 'merge diffs' - manages the merging of incremental updates to the search index and customer account files
ms00000n.pl - 'mail script' that sends the emails from the desktop
nph-dl00000n.pl - 'download' - manages the digital download
nq00000n.pl - displays and logs script errors
rs00000n.pl - the 'referrer script' you can use to track where customers come from. More details in the AUG.
00000n.pl - 'search highlight' - highlights search results
