        ------------------------------
       
       I had wanted to try a web server written in bash for years, well the
       wish just came true with bashttpd available at
       https://github.com/avleen/bashttpd
       
       It is pretty easy to use, you only need to download the script, make
       it executable and launch it. There are several launch options, one
       single connection or accepting multiple connections. At launch time 
       a default config file is created, bashttpd.conf, you can configure 
       several things, especially the files you want to serve.
       
       In order to connect to the server, ie, to see the file it is serving
       use the address of the machine using port number 8080. For example if
       the server has the following ip: 10.100.120.2 open a web browser
       and type http://10.100.120.2:8080 and that's it.
       
       Two important considerations here:
       
        - Never use it on the web, it is highly dangerous and insecure. Use
       it at home or in a private network (Its main use is for testing stuff)
        - "If anyone installs that anywhere, they might meet a gruesome end
       with a rusty fork" --- BasHTTPd creator, maintainer
       
       Enjoy it
