Inpired (;-) by that thread I hacked a short script to use the local
grimoire. I didn't know which output to use, though.

I used it with ucspi-tools installed.
start it with
tcpserver 127.0.0.1 80 bash file

you can then use it with lynx localhost/?$SPELL


file:
#!/bin/bash
source /etc/sorcery/config
read request
spell=$(echo $request | perl -ple'($_)=m|/\?([^\s]+)|')
spelldir=$(codex_find_spell_by_name $spell)
[ ! $spelldir ] && echo "no such spell $spell" && exit 1
codex_set_current_spell $spelldir
echo "<a href = \"$WEB_SITE\">$WEB_SITE</a>"
