+ # Roadmap
71
+
72
+ I plan to implement support for using a wpad.dat file, and caching it for some amount of time
73
+ to ensure speedy command execution.
74
+
75
+ Challenges in this are:
76
+ - A javascript interpreter is needed to properly interpret the file
77
+ - Some wpad.dat files do matches against the hostname (and possibly other things) to determine the
78
+ appropriate proxy.. we can't really support that as the URL may or may not beas the URL may or
79
+ may not beas the URL may or may not beas the URL may or may not be known.
80
+
81
+ However basic support will likely be good enough for many use cases.
82
+
83
+ Other options for network detection may also be appropriate, i.e. based on IP address, DNS domain, or
84
+ GNOME/network-manager proxy settings for corporate networks rather than VPNs as I originally designed
85
+ it for. If you have a use case here, please let me know.
