Hi!
I'm writing a nanolet with non-preemptive Basic authorization support.
I didn't find a way to get a WWW-Authenticate header in the Response.
This header is needed so that the client retries the request with authentication (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication#Protocol).
Is there something I'm missing? Can anybody provide info on how this may be achieved?
Thanks a lot

So the way to do it is Response.addHeader
Sorry for opening the issue too early
