#Simple hit counter

#To include in a webpage (HTML), put <!--#exec cmd="PATHTOCGISCRIPT.cg
+i"--> in the document
#Replacing PATHTOCGISCRIPT with the url to the CGI script (this script
+).
#For PHP, within the <?php and ?> tags, include "virtual("PATHTOCGISCR
+IPT.cgi");"
#without the quotes.  Also, you need to create
#a file named hits.txt for the script to access.  It can
#be blank
