First of a series of cleanups to libfetch. Changed files, in
alphabetical order:
Makefile:
Add common.c to SRCS.
Make debugging easier by making 'CFLAGS += -DNDEBUG' conditional on DEBUG
Don't declare struct {ftp,http}err in {ftp,http}err.c; use struct fetcherr
instead.
README:
Remove the todo list, which is out of date anyway.
common.c: (new file)
Gather utility functions in this file.
Merge the error reporting functions intp _fetch_errstring(),
_fetch_seterr() and _fetch_syserr().
Set fetchLastErrCode and fetchLastErrText appropriately when fetchConnect
fails.
common.h: (new file)
Gather internal prototypes and structures in this files.
fetch.3:
Undocument fetchFreeURL().
Document a few more known bugs.
Document fetchLastErrCode and fetchLastErrText.
fetch.c:
Add descriptive comments to all functions that lacked them.
Move fetchConnect() to common.c.
Obviate the need for fetchFreeURL(), and remove it.
fetch.h:
Modify struct url_t so the document part is at the end.
ftp.c:
Remove code that is duplicated elsewhere.
http.c:
Remove code that is duplicated elsewhere.
