    23  * Split off the event handling things from proxy.[ch] (and adding timer
    24  * stuff. This to allow BitlBee to use other libs than GLib for event
    25  * handling.
    26  */
     22/* This stuff used to be in proxy.c too, but I split it off so BitlBee can
     23   use other libraries (like libevent) to handle events. proxy.c is one very
     24   nice piece of work from Gaim. It connects to a TCP server in the back-
     25   ground and calls a callback function once the connection is ready to use.
     26   This function (proxy_connect()) can be found in proxy.c. (It also
     27   transparently handles HTTP/SOCKS proxies, when necessary.)
     28   
     29   This file offers some extra event handling toys, which will be handled
     30   by GLib or libevent. The advantage of using libevent is that it can use
     31   more advanced I/O polling functions like epoll() in recent Linux
     32   kernels. This should improve BitlBee's scalability. */

     27   In the "background" it will send the whole query and wait for a complete

     29   authentication code, but it might be useful for other things too (for
     30   example the AIM usericon patch uses this so icons can be stored on
     31   webservers instead of the local filesystem).
     32   
     33   Didn't test this too much, but it seems to work well. Just don't look
     34   at the code that handles HTTP 30x redirects. ;-) The function is
     35   probably not very useful for downloading lots of data since it keeps
     36   everything in a memory buffer until the download is completed (and
     37   can't pass any data or whatever before then). It's very useful for
     38   doing quick requests without blocking the whole program, though. */
