something being worked on in this area) and perl (we have seen the first
versions of this!) comes to mind. Python anyone?
- * Improve the -K config file parser (the parameter following the flag should
- be possible to get specified *exactly* as it is done on a shell command
- line).
-
- Alternatively, and preferably, we rewrite the entire config file to become
- a true config file that uses its own format instead of the currently
- crippled and stupid format:
-
- [option] = [value]
-
- Where [option] would be the same as the --long-option and [value] would
- either be 'on/off/true/false' for booleans or a plain value for [option]s
- that accept variable input (such as -d, -o, -H, -d, -F etc).
-
- [value] could be written as plain text, and then the initial and trailing
- white spaces would be stripped off, or it can be specified within quotes
- and then all white spaces within the quotes will count.
-
- [value] could then be made to accept some format to specify an environment
- variable. I could even think of supporting
-
- [option] += [value]
-
- for appending stuff to an option.
-
- As has been suggested, ${name} could be used to read environment variables
- and possibly other options. That could then be used instead of += operators
- like:
-
- bar = "foo ${bar}"

- * rtsp:// support -- "Real Time Streaming Protocol" (RFC 2326)
-
* "Content-Encoding: compress/gzip/zlib"
HTTP 1.1 clearly defines how to get and decode compressed documents. There
sniffing. This should however be a library-based functionality. There are a
few different efforts "out there" to make open source HTTP clients support
this and it should be possible to take advantage of other people's hard
- work.
+ work. http://modntlm.sourceforge.net/ is one.
* RFC2617 compliance, "Digest Access Authentication"
