This sounds very much as if what you're actually looking for is a web servlet engine with libfossil bindings, rather than anything that's actually specific to Fossil. In which case I'd strongly urge that the best option here is to pick a third party servlet engine based on its own criteria rather than inventing yet another one --- they're harder than they look and there are too many as it is! (Particularly if you want something session-based; sessions are surprisingly hard to get right.)

I'd like a page that allows browsing the repository *by filename*. There are many occasions when I want to be able to link directly to the tip version of a particular file, and currently I can't do that --- I either have to link to a file by artifact ID or force the file to be available via doc/ somehow, which isn't always possible. -- ┌─── ｄｇ＠ｃｏｗｌａｒｋ．ｃｏｍ ───── http://www.cowlark.com ───── │ │ "You cannot truly appreciate _Atlas Shrugged_ until you have read it │ in the original Klingon." --- Sea Wasp on r.a.sf.w
