Short: Caching Proxy usable with any Web-Browser
Author: mshopf@immd4.informatik.uni-erlangen.de (Matthias Hopf)
Uploader: mshopf@immd4.informatik.uni-erlangen.de (Matthias Hopf)
Version: 0.9 public beta version
Type: comm/tcp
Requires: AmiTCP V2.0 and up
Httpproxy is a proxy that caches incomming data for http requests. This can
speed up loading of a page enormously, once you visited it.
If you don't know what a proxy is, read the 'Beginners Guide' section of the
provided guide file.
There are some ARexx-scripts around that provide the same functionality, but
these alter the documents and don't provide additional features httpproxy has.
It is possible to configure httpproxy in a way that you are able to browse
in offline mode, too (assuming you are connected to the internet by modem),
at least through the pages you already visited.
Then you are able to queue requests and let httpproxy send them automatically
next time when you are online.
Httpproxy is Emailware - be sure to read the License section of the provided
guide file.
It is still beta, but as it seems to run stable and I couldn't find another bug
for a couple of days I decided to make this beta version public.
Enjoy!
