HTIMP is an IMP to take care of interactive clients for HTtp servers;
or, it is the HTtp Interactive Manager Program.

HTIMP is a program to manage interactive processes for an http daemon.
It starts up the client process and returns a handle which is used
for future communications with that client.

HTIMP is written entirely in C.  It was developed running under NCSA httpd
1.0, using CGI 1.0, so should be easy to use as a server script under any
http daemon that implements CGI 1.0.

It would also be pretty easy to integrate htimp directly into an http
daemon.  There could be a special prefix which would indicate that
a request should be directed to the htimp code, in the same manner
that NCSA httpd uses a ScriptAlias prefix to indicate that the request
should be directed to an external script.

To make htimp:
 1. cd src
 2. If necessary, edit the Makefile (probably the LIBS line)
 3. make depend
 4. make
