 Apache::loncommon - pile of common routines
 
 =head1 SYNOPSIS
 
-Referenced by other mod_perl Apache modules.
+Common routines for manipulating connections, student answers,
+    domains, common Javascript fragments, etc.
 
-Invocation:
- &Apache::loncommon::SUBROUTINENAME(ARGUMENTS);
+=head1 OVERVIEW
 
-=head1 INTRODUCTION
-
-Common collection of used subroutines.  This collection helps remove
+A collection of commonly used subroutines that don't have a natural
+home anywhere else. This collection helps remove
 redundancy from other modules and increase efficiency of memory usage.
 
-Current things done:
-
- Makes a table out of the previous homework attempts
- Inputs result_from_symbread, user, domain, course_id
- Reads in non-network-related .tab files
-
-This is part of the LearningOnline Network with CAPA project
-described at http://www.lon-capa.org.

-Modify the %ENV hash to contain unprocessed CGI form parameters held in

+=item &store_course_settings
 
-Typically called with $ENV{'QUERY_STRING'} as the first parameter.  
-$possible_names is an ref to an array of form element names.  As an example:
-get_unprocessed_cgi($ENV{'QUERY_STRING'},['uname','udom']);
-will result in $ENV{'form.uname'} and $ENV{'form.udom'} being set.
+Restores/Store indicated form parameters from the course environment.
