[squid-dev] Online Translator interface for Squid

Hi,

My name is Jeff Merkey.  I have written a machine translator for
translating Cherokee to English and English to Cherokee and I also
have been reviewing adding this support to a squid proxy so cherokee
speakers can browse the internet through a squid cache and I translate
raw html pages as they are read from the squid cache on the client
side.

It will allow me to translate any web content read through such a
cache to downstream clients.  I need to know where to hook into your
cache at the layer it is reading html pages to insert the translator.
The translator will be open sourced under GPL2.  I already have logic
in the translator to handle translation of HTML pages.

Is there a neat and clean interface where I can get the pages being
read from the cache, and translate them, then send them to the
downstream clients.

Any assistance is appreciated.  I know C and C++ and I have been
reviewing the squid code and I need some help determining where the
best place it to insert a hook that will read, translate, and write
back the pages into the live data stream.

Jeff Merkey
