recognize it any more. This makes the following significant changes:
- The main body of the program doesn't know a thing about URIs,
HTTP, or FTP. This makes it possible to easily plug in other
protocols. (The next revision will probably be able to dynamically
add new recognizers.)
- There are no longer arbitrary timeouts for the protocols. If you want
to set one for yourself, use the environment variables.
- FTP proxies are now supported (if I implemented it right).
- The HTTP implementation is much more complete, and can now do restarts,
preserve modtimes, and mrun in mirror mode. It's not yet up to 1.1,
but it's getting there.
- Transaction TCP is now used for sending HTTP requests. The HTTP/1.1 syntax
for requesting that the connection be closed after one request is
implemented.
In all of this, I have doubtless broken somebody. Please test it and tell me
about the bugs.
