Does this do SSL ? If not, there is no reason to use this instead of the (excellent) thttpd.

thttpd is a very, very nice tool. It's very handy sometimes to just fire up thttpd -d /some/dir because you want to look at the contents of the dir in a web browser but don't want to spin up the whole environment and server, etc.

I put thttpd on a lot of informal servers just to have it around when I need something like that...
