Library to parse proxy auto-config (PAC) files

Pacparser is a library to parse proxy auto-config (PAC) files. Proxy auto-config files are a vastly used proxy configuration method these days. Web browsers can use a PAC file to determine which proxy server to use or whether to go direct for a given URL. PAC files are written in JavaScript and can be programmed to return different proxy methods depending upon URL, source IP address, protocol, time of the day etc. PAC files introduce a lot of possibilities.
