This module keeps a list of proxies and gateways to be contacted on a request
in stead of requesting it directly from the origin server. The module replaces
the old system of environment variables for gateways and proxies. However
for backward compatibility there is a function that reads the environment
variables at start up. Note that there is a difference between a proxy and
a gateway - the difference is the way the URL is set up in the
RequestLine of the HTTP request. If the original, full URL looks
like "http://www.w3.org/test.html" then the result will for
a proxy is "http://www.w3.org/test.html" and a gateway
"/www.w3.org/test.html"

The module is implemented by HTProxy.c, and it is
a part of the  W3C Sample Code
Library.

  Registering a Proxy Server
.

A proxy server is registered with a corresponding access method, for example
http, ftp etc. The `proxy' parameter should be a fully
valid name, like http://proxy.w3.org:8001 but domain name is
not required. If an entry exists for this access then delete it and use the
new one.

  Registering a Proxy Using Regular Expressions
)

Registers a proxy as the server to contact for any URL matching the regular
expression. This requires that you have compiled with the
HT_POSIX_REGEX flag, see the installation
instructions. If you call this function without having compiled with
the HT_POSIX_REGEX flag then you will essentially get the non-regex
version. The name of the proxy should be a fully valid URL, like
"http://proxy.w3.org:8001". Returns YES if OK, else NO

  Registering a No Proxy Location
.

The noproxy list is a list of host names and domain names where
we don't contact a proxy even though a proxy is in fact registered for this
particular access method . When registering a noproxy item, you
can specify a specific port for this access method in which case it isvalid
only for requests to this port. If `port' is '0' then it applies to all ports
and if `access' is NULL then it applies to to all access methods. Examples
of host names are w3.org and www.close.com

  Registering a NoProxy Location Using Regular Expressions

go directly and not via a proxy. Examples:
http://<star>\.w3\.org and

<star> in order not interfere with C comments) This requires
