Thank you for the prompt response.

This was exactly what I was hoping would happen - and it will become of
increasing interest since my (future) ISP charges by connect-time and
not by download-size. And his charges are a lot more than I pay at
present.

And with that advice all my previous confusions return.

README.compress - assuming that I have understood what it says -
indicates that, provided that the server uses to HTTP 1.1 protocol,
files are sent in compressed format if the receiving browser can handle
that format.  And WWWOFFLE-2.8, with zlib installed, presumably can.

So if the time of WWWOFFLE fetches can be halved, what points to
"127.0.01", what listens at port 8080 and what port entry - referring to
ziproxy - goes into /etc/services?

Finally, ziproxy give just too many choices - use with xinetd, with
inetd or (from the commandline) with netd.  So, which?
