Tutorial with a real world sample
=====================================
Here is a fairly complete tutorial, this is a use case that comes from the real world.
At the end of the tutorial you will have a good understanding of rougail.
.. objectives:: Configuring (the setting of) your favorite web browser
This tutorial will show you an example of Rougail use based on the
*how to set a proxy* in the `Mozilla Firefox <https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/>`_ browser
use case.

We'll call the variables **configuration options** since that's what the variables represent in this case.
.. attention:: We are not coding a firefox plugin here.
We are just going to handle some of the firefox configuration settings
with Rougail.
