+:mod:`SimpleHTTPServer` --- Simple HTTP request handler
+=======================================================
+
+.. module:: SimpleHTTPServer
+   :synopsis: This module provides a basic request handler for HTTP servers.
+.. sectionauthor:: Moshe Zadka <moshez@zadka.site.co.il>
+
+.. note::
+   The :mod:`SimpleHTTPServer` module has been merged into :mod:`http.server` in
+   Python 3.0.  The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when
+   converting your sources to 3.0.
+
+
+The :mod:`SimpleHTTPServer` module defines a single class,
+:class:`SimpleHTTPRequestHandler`, which is interface-compatible with
+:class:`BaseHTTPServer.BaseHTTPRequestHandler`.
+
+The :mod:`SimpleHTTPServer` module defines the following class:
+
+
+.. class:: SimpleHTTPRequestHandler(request, client_address, server)
+
+   This class serves files from the current directory and below, directly
+   mapping the directory structure to HTTP requests.
+
+   A lot of the work, such as parsing the request, is done by the base class
+   :class:`BaseHTTPServer.BaseHTTPRequestHandler`.  This class implements the
+   :func:`do_GET` and :func:`do_HEAD` functions.
+
+   The following are defined as class-level attributes of
+   :class:`SimpleHTTPRequestHandler`:
+
+
+   .. attribute:: server_version
+
+   This will be ``"SimpleHTTP/" + __version__``, where ``__version__`` is
+   defined at the module level.
+
+
+   .. attribute:: extensions_map
+
+      A dictionary mapping suffixes into MIME types. The default is
+      signified by an empty string, and is considered to be
+      ``application/octet-stream``. The mapping is used case-insensitively,
+      and so should contain only lower-cased keys.
+
+   The :class:`SimpleHTTPRequestHandler` class defines the following methods:
+
+
+   .. method:: do_HEAD()
+
+      This method serves the ``'HEAD'`` request type: it sends the headers it
+      would send for the equivalent ``GET`` request. See the :meth:`do_GET`
+      method for a more complete explanation of the possible headers.
+
+
+   .. method:: do_GET()
+
+      The request is mapped to a local file by interpreting the request as a
+      path relative to the current working directory.
+
+      If the request was mapped to a directory, the directory is checked for a
+      file named ``index.html`` or ``index.htm`` (in that order). If found, the
+      file's contents are returned; otherwise a directory listing is generated
+      by calling the :meth:`list_directory` method. This method uses
+      :func:`os.listdir` to scan the directory, and returns a ``404`` error
+      response if the :func:`listdir` fails.
+
+      If the request was mapped to a file, it is opened and the contents are
+      returned.  Any :exc:`IOError` exception in opening the requested file is
+      mapped to a ``404``, ``'File not found'`` error. Otherwise, the content
+      type is guessed by calling the :meth:`guess_type` method, which in turn
+      uses the *extensions_map* variable.
+
+      A ``'Content-type:'`` header with the guessed content type is output,
+      followed by a ``'Content-Length:'`` header with the file's size and a
+      ``'Last-Modified:'`` header with the file's modification time.
+
+      Then follows a blank line signifying the end of the headers, and then the
+      contents of the file are output. If the file's MIME type starts with
+      ``text/`` the file is opened in text mode; otherwise binary mode is used.
+
+      For example usage, see the implementation of the :func:`test` function.
+
+      .. versionadded:: 2.5
+         The ``'Last-Modified'`` header.
