Ah, thanks, that's more stuff.  It would be good to have this info on the txtinfo howto page on the website. I'd do it if I had editing access.

I guess I can derive /variables and /plugins from /config, but it'll be a little more work to parse.  It might not really be possible to get all the variables from /config since the variable is commented out if it matches the default, while httpinfo's Variables section just shows all of the variables with their values.  I'll try...
