"""HTTP client class

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.python.org')
>>> h.putrequest('GET', '/index.html')
>>> h.putheader('Accept', 'text/html')
>>> h.putheader('Accept', 'text/plain')
>>> h.endheaders()
>>> errcode, errmsg, headers = h.getreply()
>>> if errcode == 200:
...     f = h.getfile()
...     print f.read() # Print the raw HTML
...
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Python Language Home Page</TITLE>
[...many more lines...]
>>>

Note that an HTTP object is used for a single request -- to issue a
second request to the same server, you create a new HTTP object.
(This is in accordance with the protocol, which uses a new TCP
connection for each request.)
