Package tcl-httpd-extra: Information

While this server works fine as a stand alone web server, the intent
is to embed the server in other applications in order to "web enable"
them. A Tcl-based web server is ideal for embedding because Tcl was
designed from the start to support embedding into other applications.
The interpreted nature of Tcl allows dynamic reconfiguration of the
server. Once the core interface between the web server and the hosting
application is defined, it is possible to manage the web server,
upload Safe-Tcl control scripts, download logging information, and
otherwise debug the Tcl part of the application without restarting the
hosting application.

This package provides two compiled addons to a tcl-httpd:
- crypt, another interface to  crypt(); other option is tcl-trf
  package (recommended) or builtin tcl-only realization (quite slow);
- limit, interface to set|getrlimit(RLIMIT_NOFILE, ...);
Alltough, these packages can be used independenty too.
