# HTTP client class
#
-# See the following document for a tentative protocol description:
-# Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) Tim Berners-Lee, CERN
-# Internet Draft 5 Nov 1993
-# draft-ietf-iiir-http-00.txt Expires 5 May 1994
+# See the following URL for a description of the HTTP/1.0 protocol:
+# http://www.w3.org/hypertext/WWW/Protocols/
+# (I actually implemented it from a much earlier draft.)
#
# Example:
#
# >>> from httplib import HTTP
-# >>> h = HTTP('www.cwi.nl')
-# >>> h.putreqest('GET', '/index.html')
+# >>> h = HTTP('www.python.org')
+# >>> h.putrequest('GET', '/index.html')
# >>> h.putheader('Accept', 'text/html')
# >>> h.putheader('Accept', 'text/plain')
# >>> h.endheaders()
# ... f = h.getfile()
# ... print f.read() # Print the raw HTML
