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.
