85 > This documentation is included with the current UNRELEASED version of
90 and is mostly complete at this point. The most up to date reference for the
91 time being is still the comments in the source files and in the individual
92 configuration files. Development of a new version is currently nearing
93 completion, and includes significant changes and enhancements over
94 earlier versions. .</P
96 > Since this is a UNRELEASED version, not all new features are well tested. This
97 documentation may be slightly out of sync as a result (especially with
98 CVS sources). And there <SPAN

116 features of ad blocking and

126 features, some of them currently under development,
127 that give the end-user more control, more privacy and more freedom:</P
134 > Can be run as an "intercepting" proxy, which obviates the need to

170 >, JavaScript and HTML annoyances,
171 pop-up windows, etc.)
176 > Modularized configuration that allows for standard settings and
177 user settings to reside in separate files, so that installing updated
178 actions files won't overwrite individual user settings.
183 > Support for Perl Compatible Regular Expressions in the configuration files, and
184 a more sophisticated and flexible configuration syntax.
189 > Improved cookie management features (e.g. session based cookies).
199 > Bypass many click-tracking scripts (avoids script redirection).
204 > Multi-threaded (POSIX and native threads).
209 > User-customizable HTML templates for all proxy-generated pages (e.g. "blocked" page).
214 > Auto-detection and re-reading of config file changes.
219 > Improved signal handling, and a true daemon mode (Unix).
224 > Every feature now controllable on a per-site or per-location basis, configuration
225 more powerful and versatile over-all.
230 > Many smaller new features added, limitations and bugs removed.
