Maybe 1.5 hrs should have been spent reading :)

One line does not an AGI make.

AGI is an interface. It consists of reading the AGI environment from STDIN 
and then, writing requests on STDOUT and reading the response from STDIN.

If you don't follow these 3 steps in order (steps 2 and 3 can be repeated) 
then your program has violated the protocol and will not function reliably 
if at all.

Please use an existing AGI library for the language of your choice. Nobody 
gets it right the first time.
