There's rl_returnz (which I really whish had implemented the command as ns_returnz for consistency sake). Jeff Davis modified rl_returnz so it treats encoding correctly and has been using it on his site. It's available at http://xarg.net/code You can test it in the following way: telnet xarg.net 80 GET / HTTP/1.1 Host: xarg.net Accept-Encoding: gzip, compress If you get a bunch of binary output, that's gzipped content. I installed his modified version, but haven't gotten gzipped output, not sure why. -Roberto -- +----| Roberto Mello - http://www.brasileiro.net/ |------+ + Computer Science Graduate Student, Utah State University + + USU Free Software & GNU/Linux Club - http://fslc.usu.edu/ + Microsoft has been doing a really bad job on their OS - Linus Torvalds
