# This file lists the possible compression types that are understood by the
# WWW server. It works very simply: if somebody asks for (for example)
# index.html, and this file does not exist, but index.html.gz does exist,
# then index.html will be 'generated' out of index.html.gz using the method
# specified with .gz. Note that this process does not actually create
# index.html in that same directory. It creates a file in the temporary
# directory which is removed immediately after usage.
#
# If somebody asks directly for index.html.gz, he will get it in the
# compressed format. This way, nice things like the following can be done:
#
# Get <A HREF="xshttpd.tar">the uncompressed tar</A>, or get the
# <A HREF="xshttpd.tar.gz">the compressed tar</A>.
#
# The user only has to have the compressed version, because if somebody
# asks for the uncompressed version, the server will uncompress it on the
# fly for that user.
#
# Note that only one compression type per file is possible. Of course, you
# can make frontends for types that require multiple filters. In that case,
# it can be helpful to know that the list is traversed as displayed here,
# from top to bottom. Also, no arguments can be passed to the uncompressor.
# It MUST be a filter: accept its input from standard input and produce
# its output on standard output.
