AOLserver is the web engine that powers America Online. It is capable of serving a very high number of users, and can host hundreds of virtual servers simultaneously within the same process.

This package contains three reference manuals for AOLserver version 3+:
- The AOLserver Administrator’s Guide covers the setup options and security issues relating to running the server;
- The AOLserver Tcl Developer’s Guide covers the Tcl API which can be used to add features to your web pages (similar in some respects to PHP or Microsoft’s ASP);
- The AOLserver C Developer’s Guide covers the C API which can be used to create new modules to extend AOLserver.
This is the latest available version of the documentation, but it is quite outdated and incomplete. More up-to-date API documentation is available at http://panoptic.com/wiki/aolserver/Tcl_API.
