dictionary, with case-insensitive keys.</p>
<p>Also there is an <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">.add(key,</span> <span class="pre">value)</span></tt> method, which sets the key,
or adds the value to the current value (turning it into a list if
necessary).</p>
<p>For passing to WSGI there is a <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">.headeritems()</span></tt> method which is
like <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">.items()</span></tt> but unpacks value that are lists.  It also
handles encoding &#8211; all headers are encoded in ASCII (if they are
unicode).</p>
<p>&#64;&#64;: Should that encoding be ISO-8859-1 or UTF-8?  I&#8217;m not sure
what the spec says.</p>

are joined with &#8216;,&#8217;.   Note that this is consistent /w RFC 2616
section 4.2 which states:</p>
<blockquote>
It MUST be possible to combine the multiple header fields
into one &#8220;field-name: field-value&#8221; pair, without changing
the semantics of the message, by appending each subsequent
field-value to the first, each separated by a comma.</blockquote>
<p>However, note that the original netscape usage of &#8216;Set-Cookie&#8217;,
especially in MSIE which contains an &#8216;expires&#8217; date will is not
compatible with this particular concatination method.</p>

<dd><p>Updates the headers replacing the first occurance of the given name
with the value provided; asserting that no further occurances
happen. Note that this is _not_ the same as remove_header and then
append, as two distinct operations (del followed by an append) are
not atomic in a threaded environment. Returns the previous header
value for the provided name, if any.   Clearly one should not use
this function with <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">set-cookie</span></tt> or other names that may have more
than one occurance in the headers.</p>
