+
+Daniel (3 February 2002)
+- Eric Melville provided a few spelling corrections in the curl man page.
+
+Daniel (1 February 2002)
+- Andreas Damm corrected the unconditional use of gmtime() in getdate, it now
+  uses gmtime_r() on all hosts that have it.
+
+Daniel (31 January 2002)
+- An anonymous bug report identified a problem in the DNS caching which made it
+  sometimes allocate one byte too little to store the cache entry in. This
+  happened when the port number started with 1!
+
+- Albert Chin provided a patch that improves the gethostbyname_r() configure
+  check on HP-UX 11.00.
+
+Version 7.9.4-pre1
+
+Daniel (30 January 2002)
+- Georg Horn found another way the SSL reading failed due to the non-blocking
+  state of the sockets! I fixed.
+
+Daniel (29 January 2002)
+- Multipart formposts now send the full request properly, including the CRLF.
+  They were previously treated as part of the post data.
+
+- The upload byte counter bugged.
+
+- T. Bharath pointed out that we seed SSL on every connect, which is a time-
+  consuming operation that should only be needed to do once. We patched
+  libcurl to now only seed on the first connect when unseeded. The seeded
+  status is global so it'll now only happen once during a program's life time.
+
+  If the random_file or egdsocket is set, the seed will be re-made though.
+
+- Giaslas Georgios introduced CURLINFO_CONTENT_TYPE that lets
+  curl_easy_getinfo() read the content-type from the previous request.
+
+Daniel (28 January 2002)
+- Kjetil Jacobsen found a way to crash curl and after much debugging, it
+  turned out it was a IPv4-linux only problem introduced in 7.9.3 related to
+  name resolving.
+
+- Andreas Damm posted a huge patch that made the curl_getdate() function fully
+  reentrant!
+
+- Steve Marx pointed out that you couldn't mix CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST with
+  CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS. You can now!
+
+Daniel (25 January 2002)
+- Krishnendu Majumdar pointed out that the header length counter was not reset
+  between multiple requests on the same handle.
+
+- Pedro Neves rightfully questioned why curl always append \r\n to the data
+  that is sent in HTTP POST requests. Unfortunately, this broke the test suite
+  as the test HTTP server is lame enough not to deal with this... :-O
+
+- Following Location: headers when the connection didn't close didn't work as
+  libcurl didn't properly stop reading. This problem was added in 7.9.3 due to
+  the restructured internals. 'Frank' posted a bug report about this.
+
+Daniel (24 January 2002)
+- Kevin Roth very quickly spotted that we wrongly installed the example
+  programs that were built in the multi directory, when 'make install' was
+  used. :-/

+
+    If you want to, you can specify the host name only in the CURLOPT_PROXY
+    option, and set the port number separately with CURLOPT_PROXYPORT.
+
+  Environment Variables
+
+    libcurl automaticly checks and uses a set of environment variables to know
+    what proxies to use for certain protocols. The names of the variables are
+    following an ancient de facto standard and are built up as
+    "[protocol]_proxy" (note the lower casing). Which makes the variable
+    'http_proxy' checked for a name of a proxy to use when the input URL is
+    HTTP. Following the same rule, the variable named 'ftp_proxy' is checked
+    for FTP URLs. Again, the proxies are always HTTP proxies, the different
+    names of the variables simply allows different HTTP proxies to be used.
+
+    The proxy environment variable contents should be in the format
+    "[protocol://]machine[:port]". Where the protocol:// part is simply
+    ignored if present (so http://proxy and bluerk://proxy will do the same)
+    and the optional port number specifies on which port the proxy operates on
+    the host. If not specified, the internal default port number will be used
+    and that is most likely *not* the one you would like it to be.
+
+    There are two special environment variables. 'all_proxy' is what sets
+    proxy for any URL in case the protocol specific variable wasn't set, and
+    'no_proxy' defines a list of hosts that should not use a proxy even though
+    a variable may say so. If 'no_proxy' is a plain asterisk ("*") it matches
+    all hosts.
+
+  SSL and Proxies
+
+    SSL is for secure point-to-point connections. This involves strong
+    encryption and similar things, which effectivly makes it impossible for a
+    proxy to operate as a "man in between" which the proxy's task is, as
+    previously discussed. Instead, the only way to have SSL work over a HTTP
+    proxy is to ask the proxy to tunnel trough everything without being able
+    to check or fiddle with the traffic.
+
+    Opening an SSL connection over a HTTP proxy is therefor a matter of asking
+    the proxy for a straight connection to the target host on a specified
+    port. This is made with the HTTP request CONNECT. ("please mr proxy,
+    connect me to that remote host").
+
+    Because of the nature of this operation, where the proxy has no idea what
+    kind of data that is passed in and out through this tunnel, this breaks
+    some of the very few advantages that come from using a proxy, such as
+    caching.  Many organizations prevent this kind of tunneling to other
+    destination port numbers than 443 (which is the default HTTPS port
+    number).
+
+  Tunneling Through Proxy
+
+    As explained above, tunneling is required for SSL to work and often even
+    restricted to the operation intended for SSL; HTTPS.
+
+    This is however not the only time proxy-tunneling might offer benefits to
+    you or your application.
+
+    As tunneling opens a direct connection from your application to the remote
+    machine, it suddenly also re-introduces the ability to do non-HTTP
+    operations over a HTTP proxy. You can in fact use things such as FTP
+    upload or FTP custom commands this way.
+
+    Again, this is often prevented by the adminstrators of proxies and is
+    rarely allowed.
+
+    Tell libcurl to use proxy tunneling like this:
+
+       curl_easy_setopt(easyhandle, CURLOPT_HTTPPROXYTUNNEL, TRUE);
+
+    In fact, there might even be times when you want to do plain HTTP
+    operations using a tunnel like this, as it then enables you to operate on
+    the remote server instead of asking the proxy to do so. libcurl will not
+    stand in the way for such innovative actions either!
+
+  Proxy Auto-Config
+
+    Netscape first came up with this. It is basicly a web page (usually using
+    a .pac extension) with a javascript that when executed by the browser with
+    the requested URL as input, returns information to the browser on how to
+    connect to the URL. The returned information might be "DIRECT" (which
+    means no proxy should be used), "PROXY host:port" (to tell the browser
+    where the proxy for this particular URL is) or "SOCKS host:port" (to
+    direct the brower to a SOCKS proxy).
+
+    libcurl has no means to interpret or evaluate javascript and thus it
+    doesn't support this. If you get yourself in a position where you face
+    this nasty invention, the following advice have been mentioned and used in
+    the past:
+
+    - Depending on the javascript complexity, write up a script that
+      translates it to another language and execute that.
+
+    - Read the javascript code and rewrite the same logic in another language.
+
+    - Implement a javascript interpreted, people have successfully used the
+      Mozilla javascript engine in the past.
+
+    - Ask your admins to stop this, for a static proxy setup or similar.
+
+
+Persistancy Is The Way to Happiness
+
+ Re-cycling the same easy handle several times when doing multiple requests is
+ the way to go.
+
+ After each single curl_easy_perform() operation, libcurl will keep the
+ connection alive and open. A subsequent request using the same easy handle to
+ the same host might just be able to use the already open connection! This
+ reduces network impact a lot.
+
+ Even if the connection is dropped, all connections involving SSL to the same
+ host again, will benefit from libcurl's session ID cache that drasticly
+ reduces re-connection time.
+
+ FTP connections that are kept alive saves a lot of time, as the command-
+ response roundtrips are skipped, and also you don't risk getting blocked
+ without permission to login again like on many FTP servers only allowing N
+ persons to be logged in at the same time.
+
+ libcurl caches DNS name resolving results, to make lookups of a previously
+ looked up name a lot faster.
+
+ Other interesting details that improve performance for subsequent requests
+ may also be added in the future.
+
+ Each easy handle will attempt to keep the last few connections alive for a
+ while in case they are to be used again. You can set the size of this "cache"
+ with the CURLOPT_MAXCONNECTS option. Default is 5. It is very seldom any
+ point in changing this value, and if you think of changing this it is often
+ just a matter of thinking again.
+
+ When the connection cache gets filled, libcurl must close an existing
+ connection in order to get room for the new one. To know which connection to
+ close, libcurl uses a "close policy" that you can affect with the
+ CURLOPT_CLOSEPOLICY option. There's only two polices implemented as of this
+ writing (libcurl 7.9.4) and they are:
+
+  CURLCLOSEPOLICY_LEAST_RECENTLY_USED simply close the one that hasn't been
+  used for the longest time. This is the default behavior.
+
+  CURLCLOSEPOLICY_OLDEST closes the oldest connection, the one that was
+  createst the longest time ago.
+
+ There are, or at least were, plans to support a close policy that would call
+ a user-specified callback to let the user be able to decide which connection
+ to dump when this is necessary and therefor is the CURLOPT_CLOSEFUNCTION an
+ existing option still today. Nothing ever uses this though and this will not
+ be used within the forseeable future either.
+
+ To force your upcoming request to not use an already existing connection (it
+ will even close one first if there happens to be one alive to the same host
+ you're about to operate on), you can do that by setting CURLOPT_FRESH_CONNECT
+ to TRUE. In a similar spirit, you can also forbid the upcoming request to be
+ "lying" around and possibly get re-used after the request by setting
+ CURLOPT_FORBID_REUSE to TRUE.
+
+
+Customizing Operations
+
+ There is an ongoing development today where more and more protocols are built
+ upon HTTP for transport. This has obvious benefits as HTTP is a tested and
+ reliable protocol that is widely deployed and have excellent proxy-support.
+
+ When you use one of these protocols, and even when doing other kinds of
+ programming you may need to change the traditional HTTP (or FTP or...)
+ manners. You may need to change words, headers or various data.
+
+ libcurl is your friend here too.
+
+ If just changing the actual HTTP request keyword is what you want, like when
+ GET, HEAD or POST is not good enough for you, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST is there
+ for you. It is very simple to use:
+
+    curl_easy_setopt(easyhandle, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, "MYOWNRUQUEST");
+
+ When using the custom request, you change the request keyword of the actual
+ request you are performing. Thus, by default you make GET request but you can
+ also make a POST operation (as described before) and then replace the POST
+ keyword if you want to. You're the boss.
+
+ HTTP-like protocols pass a series of headers to the server when doing the
+ request, and you're free to pass any amount of extra headers that you think
+ fit. Adding headers are this easy:
+
+    struct curl_slist *headers;
+
+    headers = curl_slist_append(headers, "Hey-server-hey: how are you?");
+    headers = curl_slist_append(headers, "X-silly-content: yes");
+
+    /* pass our list of custom made headers */
+    curl_easy_setopt(easyhandle, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, headers);
+
+    curl_easy_perform(easyhandle); /* transfer http */
+
+    curl_slist_free_all(headers); /* free the header list */
+
+ ... and if you think some of the internally generated headers, such as
+ User-Agent:, Accept: or Host: don't contain the data you want them to
+ contain, you can replace them by simply setting them too:
+
+    headers = curl_slist_append(headers, "User-Agent: 007");
+    headers = curl_slist_append(headers, "Host: munged.host.line");
+
+ If you replace an existing header with one with no contents, you will prevent
+ the header from being sent. Like if you want to completely prevent the
+ "Accept:" header to be sent, you can disable it with code similar to this:
+
+    headers = curl_slist_append(headers, "Accept:");
+
+ Both replacing and cancelling internal headers should be done with careful
+ consideration and you should be aware that you may violate the HTTP protocol
+ when doing so.
+
+ Not all protocols are HTTP-like, and thus the above may not help you when you
+ want to make for example your FTP transfers to behave differently.
+
+ Sending custom commands to a FTP server means that you need to send the
+ comands exactly as the FTP server expects them (RFC959 is a good guide here),
+ and you can only use commands that work on the control-connection alone. All
+ kinds of commands that requires data interchange and thus needs a
+ data-connection must be left to libcurl's own judgement. Also be aware that
+ libcurl will do its very best to change directory to the target directory
+ before doing any transfer, so if you change directory (with CWD or similar)
+ you might confuse libcurl and then it might not attempt to transfer the file
+ in the correct remote directory.
+
+ A little example that deletes a given file before an operation:
+
+    headers = curl_slist_append(headers, "DELE file-to-remove");
+
+    /* pass the list of custom commands to the handle */
+    curl_easy_setopt(easyhandle, CURLOPT_QUOTE, headers);
+
+    curl_easy_perform(easyhandle); /* transfer ftp data! */
+
+    curl_slist_free_all(headers); /* free the header list */
+
+ If you would instead want this operation (or chain of operations) to happen
+ _after_ the data transfer took place the option to curl_easy_setopt() would
+ instead be called CURLOPT_POSTQUOTE and used the exact same way.
+
+ The custom FTP command will be issued to the server in the same order they
+ are built in the list, and if a command gets an error code returned back from
+ the server no more commands will be issued and libcurl will bail out with an
+ error code. Note that if you use CURLOPT_QUOTE to send commands before a
+ transfer, no transfer will actually take place then.
