+Cowboy Static File Handler
+==========================
+
+To compile this example you need rebar in your PATH.
+
+Type the following command:
+```
+$ rebar get-deps compile
+```
+
+You can then start the Erlang node with the following command:
+```
+./start.sh
+```
+
+Cowboy will serve all the files you put in the priv/ directory.
+You can replace the filename given in the example URL with the
+one of a file you added to this directory to receive that file.
+
+Example
+-------
+
+Show that the file is returned as an octet-stream
+
+``` bash
+$ curl -i http://localhost:8080/test.txt
+HTTP/1.1 200 OK
+connection: keep-alive
+server: Cowboy
+date: Fri, 28 Sep 2012 04:19:40 GMT
+content-length: 52
+Content-Type: application/octet-stream
+Last-Modified: Fri, 28 Sep 2012 04:01:20 GMT
+
+If you read this then the static file server works!
+```
+
+Finally download and cat the file to verify
+
+``` bash
+$ curl -sLO http://localhost:8080/test.txt
+$ cat test.txt
+If you read this then the static file server works!
+```
