A very cool and intuitive Python API for HTTP
by Mark.
On a related note, being a command-line kinda guy, I’ve long lusted
for a “Web shell” which allows me to do this (but lacked the time or skill
necessary to build my own);
$ cat http://example.org/some-uri # PUT
$ cat foo >> http://example.org/some-uri # POST
$ rm http://example.org/some-uri # DELETE
