 Immediately close the HTTP server and all current HTTP connections.
+### Static Pages Extension
+The echttp library can serve local files, from several separate locations if needed. This capacity is a separate extension and requires to include echttp_static.h.
+The static page extension primitives are:
+```
+void echttp_static_content_map (const char *extension, const char *content);
+```
+Define the content type associated with a specific file extension. The content type is implicitely defined for the following file extensions: html, htm, json, jsn, css.
+```
+int  echttp_static_route (const char *uri, const char *path);
+```
+Associate a parent URI with a local directory path: a child of the specified URI will match an existing file at the specified path (including the URI's child relative path).
+
+For example if one defines a static route from /static to /home/doe/public, the URI /static/fancy/interface.html will route to /home/doe/public/fancy/interface.html.
