- failed to use authorization parameters passed in the environment, if
/dev/tty could not be opened (i.e. if running from cron)
- mixed use of /dev/tty and stdin for prompt and reading of the result
for ftp: URLs as well. This can't possibly be done in the general case,
but since we only claim to support http and ftp, we'll adhere to the
bogus requirement (RFC 2068, s. 14.25) anyway... >sigh<

in any error case here to be on two lines to lessen the likelihood of it
being too long to fit on just one.
been extensively tested, but I now can successfully retrieve
<http://www.apache.org/index.html>, so I guess that's a victory of some
sort.
Also move the initialization of ``autherror'' to hopefully eliminate
the reported loop involving authentication. Still need to implement
MD5 digest authentication.
undocumented FTP_PROXY_USER
Make FTP file errors contian hostname and path.
Pass the FTP port to libftp.

- Fix the bug with URIs of the form ftp://host/filename.
- Fix some more string-termination bugs in util.c.
- Use safe_malloc() rather than testing the return value of
regular malloc() in 15 places.
- Implement HTTP authentication, for both servers and proxies.
Currently only ``basic'' authentication is supported; This Is A Bug
(but less of one tjhan nmot supporting any authentication).
I think there is only one more feature which is required for full
HTTP/1.1 support, which is Transfer-Encoding: chunked; this should
not be toohard, but it isn't very important, either.
1) Implement redirects (or try to, at least).
2) Implement automatic retry after 503 errors when Retry-After is given.
3) Implement a -a flag to enable both of these behaviors.
4) Recognize Transfer-Encoding headers and emit a warning that the file
is likely to be damaged.
5) Bug fix: only write the amount of data we read.
6) Actually document some of these.
7) Fix the usage message to display flags in semi-alphabetical order.
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.
