I have a question about the cache.  Is it totally transparent?  If so, I
dont understand why the functions are public, and included in the standard
documentation.  If there are "layers", usually documentation reflects that
and keeps the user's interface to the library away from the private
functions used by the library.  
Anyways thats the source of my confusion.  So I'm new to the library and I
*thought* I had figured out exactly how to incorporate the cache.  I'm
currently just trying to add it to a command-line URL fetcher (just a
testing program, so that I can understand this before trying to put it
into a larger program.)  If anyone could give me perhaps some sample code
for getting the persistent cache up and going, with an example of fetching
a URL and storing it in the cache, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks!
