The .Nm library can be used to embed a webserver in your applications. .Pp Normal operation sees the .Nm process be initialised using the .Fn bozo_set_defaults function, which will set up the default port and other internal settings, allocating any necessary space as needed. The .Fn bozo_set_defaults function returns 1 on sucess, 0 on failure. .Pp The .Fn bozo_setup function is used to specify the virtual host name for the web server. A NULL host name will mean that .Nm will use the local value for the host name, as returned by .Xr gethostname 3 . This virtual hostname should be a fully qualified domain name. The final argument to .Fn bozo_setup is the name of the directory to serve as the root directory of the web server tree. .Pp Once the server has been set up, it serves requests by using the .Fn bozo_read_request function, which returns a pointer to a request structure, and .Fn bozo_process_request , which deals with the request, and answers the client. The request space is de-allocated using the .Fn bozo_clean_request function. .Pp Preferences are set using the function .Fn bozo_set_pref function and queried using the two .Fn bozo_get_pref function. This is the main interface for selecting options, and for setting preferences. The memory allocated by .Fn bozo_setup for both the httpd structure and the preferences will be freed. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr gethostname 3 , .Xr ssl 3 , .Xr services 5 , .Xr httpd 8 .Sh HISTORY The .Nm library first appeared in .Nx 6.0 . .Sh AUTHORS .An Matthew R.
