The SU Net package, version 1.0
===============================

This directory contains my code for doing Net hacking from Scheme/scsh.
It includes:
    An smtp client library.
    	Forge mail from the comfort of your own Scheme process.

    rfc822 header library
    	Read email-style headers. Useful in several contexts (smtp, http, etc.)

    Simple structured HTML output library
    	Balanced delimiters, etc. htmlout.scm.

    HTTP server library
    	This is a complete implementation of an HTTP 1.0 server.
    	The server is very extensible, via a mechanism called "path handlers."
    	The library includes other standalone libraries that may be of use:
    	    + URI and URL parsers and unparsers.
    	    + A library to help writing CGI scripts in Scheme.
    	    + Server extensions for interfacing to CGI scripts.
    	    + Server extensions for uploading Scheme code.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note well:
- You can't do serious programming in Scheme within the bounds of R4RS.
  I work in Scheme 48 and scsh. Every file does have a comment header
  describing its non-R4RS dependencies, should you decide to try porting
  it to another Scheme.

- Only simple documentation, but my code is written in my usual style -- 
  voluminously commented.

Note further:

The net package is currently being maintained by Mike Sperber
<sperber@informatik.uni-tuebingen.de>.

My main focus for further development is on making the HTTP server
into a realistic full-blown package, but I'll gladly accept patches
and suggestions for the other parts of the net package.
