Steve,

Are you using the CGI Perl module version 2.57 or later? If so, you
can pass the parameters on the command line:

./foo.cgi ticket=25314 action=close user=joeuser key=5df83sk3

Another option is to use the debug flag in your cgi:

use CGI qw( -debug );

This should make the script prompt you for the inputs when you run it
like old versions of CGI.pm did. I have not tried this second method
myself though.
