The `tipideed` program

tipideed is the binary that actually does what you want from a web server package: it serves files over HTTP.

Interface

     tipideed [ -v verbosity ] [ -f cdbfile ] [ -d basedir ] [ -R ] [ -U ]

tipideed reads a stream of HTTP (1.0 or 1.1) requests on its stdin, and tries to fulfill them, sending answers to stdout, and logs to stderr.
tipideed only speaks plaintext HTTP. It supports HTTPS, but the TLS layer must be handled upstream by a program such as s6-tlsd.
tipideed stays alive until the client closes the connection or (in HTTP 1.1) sends a request with a Connection: close header, or an error occurs that makes it nonsensical to keep the connection open.
By default, the documents it serves must be in subdirectories of its current working directory, one subdirectory for every domain it hosts.

TODO: write this page.

0: clean exit. The client closed the connection after a stream of HTTP exchanges.
100: bad usage. tipideed has been run in an incorrect way: bad command line options, or missing environment variables, etc.
101: cannot happen. This signals a bug in tipideed, and comes with an error message asking you to report the bug. Please do so.
111: system call failed. If this happens while serving a request, tipideed likely has sent a 500 (Internal Server Error) response to the client before exiting.

tipideed is pronounced tipi-deed. You can also say tipi-dee-dee, but only if you're the type of person who says PC computer, NIC card or ATM machine.
