HTTP URLs are retrieved into a buffer containing the HTTP headers
followed by the body. Since the headers are quasi-MIME, they may be
processed using the MIME library. @xref{Top,, Emacs MIME,
-emacs-mime, The Emacs MIME Manual}. The URL package provides a
-function to do this in general:
-
-@defun url-decode-text-part handle &optional coding
-This function decodes charset-encoded text in the current buffer. In
-Emacs, the buffer is expected to be unibyte initially and is set to
-multibyte after decoding.
-HANDLE is the MIME handle of the original part. CODING is an explicit
-coding to use, overriding what the MIME headers specify.
-The coding system used for the decoding is returned.
-
-Note that this function doesn't deal with @samp{http-equiv} charset
-specifications in HTML @samp{<meta>} elements.

@defopt url-cache-creation-function
The cache relies on a scheme for mapping URLs to files in the cache.
This variable names a function which sets the type of cache to use.

+This function returns non-nil if a cache entry has expired (or is absent).
+The arguments are a URL and optional expiration delay in seconds
+(default @var{url-cache-expire-time}).
