Todo list REST API server

todolist_http_server.c

./todolist_http_server --ssl
0001 [root:*] 
0002   [/todo> ALL
0003     {create:/([a-zA-z]+[a-z0-9A-Z]*)] PUT
0004     {get:/([0-9]+)] GET
0005     {remove:/([0-9]+)] DELETE
0006     [list:*] GET
0007     [done:*] POST

 Create a new 'Hello' todo entry:
	curl -k -XPUT -d'Say Hello' https://localhost:8080/todo/Hello
	curl -k -XPUT -d'Say Hello' https://localhost:8080/todo/Hello?done=1

 List all todo list items:
	curl -k https://localhost:8080/todo

 Get task #1 details:
	curl -k https://localhost:8080/todo/1

 Remove task #2 from todo list:
	curl -k -XDELETE https://localhost:8080/todo/2

 Update done status of task #2:
	curl -k -XPOST -d'id=2&done=1' https://localhost:8080/todo
