README

This is the Scheme Untergrund Networking Package.

The Scheme Untergrund Networking Package (SUnet, for short) is a
collection of applications and libraries for Internet hacking in
Scheme.  It contains over 9000 lines of high-quality Scheme code which
runs under Scsh, the Scheme shell.  SUnet which makes extensive use of
Scsh's facilities for multi-threaded systems programming und Unix.

SUnet includes the following components:

* The SUnet Web server
    This is a highly configurable HTTP 1.0 server in Scheme.
    The server is accompanied some libraries which may also
    be used separately:

    * URI and URL parsers and unparsers
    * a library for writing CGI scripts in Scheme
    * server extensions for interfacing to CGI scripts
    * server extensions for uploading Scheme code
    * simple structured HTML output library

* The SUnet ftp server
    This is a complete anonymous ftp server in Scheme.

* ftp client library
    This library allows you to access ftp servers programmatically.

* Netrc library
    This library parses authentication information contained in ~/.netrc.

* SMTP client library
    This library allows you to forge mail from the comfort of your own
    Scheme process.

* POP3 client library
    This library allows you to access your POP3 mailbox from inside Scsh.

* RFC822 header library
    This library parses email-style headers.

* Daytime and Time protocol client libraries
    These libraries lets you find out what time it is without paying for a
    Rolex.

* DNS client library
    This is a complete, multithreaded DNS library.

* An ls clone
    This library displays Unix-style directory listings without running ls.

The SUnet code is available from

http://www.scsh.net/sunet/

To run the code, you need version 0.6.4 or later of Scsh, available from

http://www.scsh.net/

Please direct questions, comments, answers about SUnet to the regular
scsh mailing list at

scsh@zurich.ai.mit.edu

Relax, hack, and enjoy!
