TECHNICALS 

    Parsing is carried by a sub-library which I wrote named parslib.

TODO

    * Connect with parslib
    * Parse port out of Host header (default_value:80)
    * Implement server message parsing
    * Verify and search for memory leaks
    * More testing, debugging, fixing
    * Implement HTTPS with OpenSSL
