pol means drop-down. kum means get-up.
this lovely linux program from ~10 years ago might still come in useful when you need a self-contained,
no-nonsense http proxy. designed to run locally, you can use it to forward connections,
modify headers (enable CORS everywhere) and provide some cacheing (or make sure there is none),
it does not uses modern TLS or even SSL, there is no overhead of encryption,
but it is not intended to unsecure stations, so you must not use it for production.
