There are two possible answers:

1. either  you  just  want  your  first  CGI to  produce  a  web  page
   containing a  link to the second  CGI with arguments;  then the URL
   contains the CGI arguments, in such a way:

	http://www.blah.org/second.cgi?arg1=value1&arg2=value2&...

   where  strings  (arguments  and   values)  must  be  encoded  using
   Cgi.encode.

2. or you want to call the second CGI when running the first one; then
   you must set the according environment variables:
  
   - REQUEST_METHOD="GET"
   - QUERY_STRING="arg1=value1&arg2=value2&..."

   before calling the second CGI (where strings are also encoded using
   Cgi.encode.)  You may  use Unix.create_process_env  to do  this (or
   Unix.execvpe if you don't need to return to the first CGI)
	
Hope this helps,
