+ <h1>Embedded response specification</h1>
+ </div>
+
+ <p>One interesting feature of the Request sppecification language is that
+ you can embed a response specifcation in it, which is then added to the
+ request path. Here's an example:</p>
+
+ <pre class="terminal">&gt; pathoc localhost:9999 "get:/p/:s'401:ir,@1'" </pre>
+
+ <p> This crafts a request that connects to the pathod server, and which then
+ crafts a response that generates a 401, with one random byte embedded at a
+ random point. The response specification is parsed and expanded by pathoc,
+ so you see syntax errors immediately. This really becomes handy when
+ combined with the <b>-e</b> flag to show the expanded request:
+
+ <pre class="terminal">&gt; > pathoc -e localhost:9999 "get:/p/:s'401:ir,@1'"
+>> Spec: get:/p/:s'401:i15,\'o\':h\'Content-Length\'=\'0\'':h'Content-Length'='0'
+<< 401 Unoauthorized: 0 bytes </pre>
+
+ <p> Note that the embedded response has been resolved <i>before</i> being
+ sent to the server, so that "ir,@1" (embed a random byte at a random
+ location) has become "i15,\'o\'" (embed the character "o" at offset 15). You
+ now have a pathoc request specification that is precisely reproducable, even
+ with random components. This feature comes in terribly handy when testing a
+ proxy, since you can now drive the server repsonse completely from the
+ client, and have a complete log of reproducible requests to analyse
+ afterwards.</p>
