572c848d98 web: for GET save=true, don't interpret the filename= arg with any character set, just copy the bytes back into the Content-Disposition header. This seems to make it maximally compatible with Firefox and IE7 2008-07-18 18:06:50 -07:00

9bb05a7a08 docs/accounts-pubkey.txt: when sending FURLs (signed or otherwise), also send
the object that it references, to bypass the Foolscap getReferenceByName
roundtrip that would otherwise be required. Recipients must still use the
FURL for security, but pre-populating the foolscap table is a good speed-up.

970edc5c65 setup and docs: various improvements to setup and docs
Remove docs/install-details.html and README.win32 for now (see #282).
Remove checks for pywin32 and pyopenssl in Makefile -- that is (or will be) automated by setuptools.
Remove twisted from setup_requires.  This causes the problem in which Nevow doesn't declare its dependency on Twisted (#440) to yield a clear ImportError mentioning Twisted and to fail repeatedly, rather than yielding a weird ImportError and working on the second identical attempt.
Fix Makefile to set PATH so that trial and twistd can be found by "make test" after Twisted was installed into support/ during "make"

151f69d9b5 webapi.txt: overhaul documentation. API changes are as follows:
* download/upload localdir=/localfile= has been removed. This sort of ambient
   authority was unsafe to expose over the web (CSRF), and at some point
   soon we'll have 'cp -r' in the CLI to replace it.
 * GET save=filename -> GET filename=filename&save=true
 * GET t=download removed
 * side-effect causing operations now use POST where appropriate, not PUT
 * to create multiple directories, either use
   * POST /uri/DIRCAP/parent?t=mkdir&name=child  (more form/browser oriented)
   * POST /uri/DIRCAP/parent/child?t=mkdir (more machine oriented)
   The t=mkdir-p form is still accepted, but not preferred (since it leaks
   the child name queryarg into the logs)
 * use PUT /uri/MUTABLEFILECAP or PUT /uri/DIRCAP/child (on a mutable file) to
   replace its contents, or POST /same?t=upload from forms
 * response bodies and codes are better specified than before
