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.
