14 docs all display as intended.
16 This file is included into:
28 FIXME: complete the list of features. change the order: most important
29 features to the top of the list. prefix new features with "NEW".
36 Supports "Connection: keep-alive". Outgoing connections can
37 be kept alive independently from the client.
43 Supports IPv6, provided the operating system does so too,
44 and the configure script detects it.
50 Supports tagging which allows to change the behaviour
51 based on client and server headers.
57 Can be run as an "intercepting" proxy, which obviates the need to
58 configure browsers individually.
64 Sophisticated actions and filters for manipulating both server and client
71 Can be chained with other proxies.
77 Integrated browser-based configuration and control utility at <ulink
78 url="http://config.privoxy.org/">http://config.privoxy.org/</ulink>
79 (shortcut: <ulink url="http://p.p/">http://p.p/</ulink>). Browser-based
80 tracing of rule and filter effects. Remote toggling.
86 Web page filtering (text replacements, removes banners based on size,
87 invisible <quote>web-bugs</quote> and HTML annoyances, etc.)
93 Modularized configuration that allows for standard settings and
94 user settings to reside in separate files, so that installing updated
95 actions files won't overwrite individual user settings.
101 Support for Perl Compatible Regular Expressions in the configuration files, and
102 a more sophisticated and flexible configuration syntax.
114 Bypass many click-tracking scripts (avoids script redirection).
120 User-customizable HTML templates for most proxy-generated pages (e.g. "blocked" page).
126 Auto-detection and re-reading of config file changes.
132 Most features are controllable on a per-site or per-location basis.
138 Many smaller new features added, limitations and bugs removed.
