This is a simple http server for purely static content. You can use it to serve the content of a ftp server via http for example. It is also nice to export some files quickly by starting an http server in a few seconds without editing a config file first.

Features/Design:

* single process: select() + non-blocking I/O * automatically generates directory listings when asked for a directory (check for index.html available as option), caches the listings. * no config file, just a few switches. Try "webfsd -h" for a list. * Uses ${PREFIX}/etc/webfsd/mime.types to map file extentions to mime/types (not included). * supports keep-alive and pipelined requests. * serves byte ranges. * optional logging in common log file format.
