Well it would be nice if it worked for command line tools too.


Avahi provides command-line tools to lookup/discover/browse services.

Though, avahi-browse needs some trivial modification to be useful for scripting.


Ummm, so how does this help me when I go:

$ wget http://....
...change network
$ wget http://....

at my shell prompt?

It would be nice if we could change every instance of 'getenv("http_proxy")'
with something just as simple that took into account:
- $http_proxy
- Bonjour
- WPAD
- whatever other external things need to be used here
and just link programs using that function to a special library if required.
