   1                            Emacs Web Server
   2
   3 DESCRIPTION
   4     A web server in Emacs running handlers written in Emacs Lisp.
   5
   6 REQUIREMENTS
   7     Emacs 24.3 or later.
   8
   9 STATUS
  10     Supports HTTP GET and POST requests including URL-encoded
  11     parameters, multipart/form data and file uploads.  Supports web
  12     sockets.  Reasonably performant, faster than Elnode [1].  This is
  13     a new project without much extended use so there are likely bugs
  14     and potentially security issues.  That said it consists of little
  15     more than HTTP header parsing logic perched atop Emacs' existing
  16     network process primitives, so it should be fairly robust.
