New stable release of WebOne, released on 14.05.2021 after 27 commits.

• Changes in configuration file(s) processing:
  • Added support of [Include:path/filename.ext] directives to load configuration from multiple files.
  • Configuration file(s) now may contain spaces and tabulations for easier readability. They won't affect work.
  • Default configuration file on Linux/macOS is now at /etc/webone.conf, not at strange /etc/WebOne/webone.conf location.
  • Linux and macOS users now may store own WebOne configuration files in /etc/webone.conf.d/ directory. So package updates will not overwrite user configuration every time.
  • Windows users now may store own multiple WebOne configuration files in program directory or in C:\ProgramData\WebOne\, and they won't be overwritten on upgrades.
• Changed the executable file name case: WebOne -> webone. Now it is consistent with configuration file name and with most of applications.
• Output encoding now can be set via AddOutputEncoding edit rule in edit sets too. By default this is used in codepage.conf to allow pre-Unicode-era browsers displaying webpages originally served in Unicode. Currently there is auto-detection of WinMosaic, Netscape <4 (Windows, MacOS 7-9), MSIE <4, DOSlynx, xChaos Arachne.
• Alphabet transliteration now may be enabled/disabled in edit sets by using AddTranslit=yes edit rule. Just leaving [Translit] section of webone.conf uncommented is no longer enough now (this confused users previously).
• Added log rotation profile on Linux, so WebOne log file will no longer be huge after intensive use.
• Added ability to find and replace something in HTTP headers: use AddResponseHeaderFind, AddResponseHeaderReplace and AddRequestHeaderFind, AddRequestHeaderReplace editing rules.
• Added support for multiple user accounts on password protected servers. Use [Authenticate] section of configuration files.
• Added AuthenticateMessage, AuthenticateRealm options in [Authenticate] section(s) for configuring proxy credentials request window and error page.
• Added store of client's user name in server log if password protection is enabled.
• Fixed inability to download Proxy Automatic Configuration script by some browsers when the proxy is password protected.
• Fixed slow exiting by Ctrl+C or window close.
• Fixed display of error messages (pages) when the messages are non-English and the client browser is not UTF-aware.
