-.BI "CURL *curl_easy_duphandle(CURL *"handle ");"
-.ad
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-This function will return a new curl handle, a duplicate, using all the
-options previously set in the input curl \fIhandle\fP. Both handles can
-subsequently be used independently and they must both be freed with
-\fIcurl_easy_cleanup()\fP.
-
-All strings that the input handle has been told to point to (as opposed to
-copy) with previous calls to \fIcurl_easy_setopt\fP using char * inputs, will
-be pointed to by the new handle as well. You must therefore make sure to keep
-the data around until both handles have been cleaned up.
-
-The new handle will \fBnot\fP inherit any state information, no connections,
-no SSL sessions and no cookies.
-
-\fBNote\fP that even in multi-threaded programs, this function must be called
-in a synchronous way, the input handle may not be in use when cloned.
-
-This function was added in libcurl 7.9.

-.B #include <curl/curl.h>
-.sp
-.BI "CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *curl, CURLINFO info, ... );"
-.ad
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-Request internal information from the curl session with this function. The
-third argument
-.B MUST
-be a pointer to a long, a pointer to a char * or a pointer to a double (as
-this documentation describes further down). The data pointed-to will be
-filled in accordingly and can be relied upon only if the function returns
-CURLE_OK. This function is intended to get used *AFTER* a performed transfer,

-.SH AVAILABLE INFORMATION
-These are informations that can be extracted:
-.TP 0.8i
-.B CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_URL
-Pass a pointer to a 'char *' to receive the last used effective URL.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE
-Pass a pointer to a long to receive the last received HTTP code.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_FILETIME
-Pass a pointer to a long to receive the remote time of the retrieved
-document. If you get -1, it can be because of many reasons (unknown, the
-server hides it or the server doesn't support the command that tells document
-time etc) and the time of the document is unknown. Note that you must tell the
-server to collect this information before the transfer is made, by using the
-CURLOPT_FILETIME option to \fIcurl_easy_setopt(3)\fP. (Added in 7.5)
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_TOTAL_TIME
-Pass a pointer to a double to receive the total transaction time in seconds
-for the previous transfer.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_NAMELOOKUP_TIME
-Pass a pointer to a double to receive the time, in seconds, it took from the
-start until the name resolving was completed.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_CONNECT_TIME
-Pass a pointer to a double to receive the time, in seconds, it took from the
-start until the connect to the remote host (or proxy) was completed.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_PRETRANSFER_TIME
-Pass a pointer to a double to receive the time, in seconds, it took from the
-start until the file transfer is just about to begin. This includes all
-pre-transfer commands and negotiations that are specific to the particular
-protocol(s) involved.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_STARTTRANSFER_TIME
-Pass a pointer to a double to receive the time, in seconds, it took from the
-start until the first byte is just about to be transfered. This includes
-CURLINFO_PRETRANSFER_TIME and also the time the server needs to calculate
-the result.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_SIZE_UPLOAD
-Pass a pointer to a double to receive the total amount of bytes that were
-uploaded.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_SIZE_DOWNLOAD
-Pass a pointer to a double to receive the total amount of bytes that were

-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_SPEED_DOWNLOAD
-Pass a pointer to a double to receive the average download speed that curl
-measured for the complete download.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_SPEED_UPLOAD
-Pass a pointer to a double to receive the average upload speed that curl
-measured for the complete upload.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_HEADER_SIZE
-Pass a pointer to a long to receive the total size of all the headers
-received.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_REQUEST_SIZE
-Pass a pointer to a long to receive the total size of the issued
-requests. This is so far only for HTTP requests. Note that this may be more
-than one request if FOLLOWLOCATION is true.
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_SSL_VERIFYRESULT
-Pass a pointer to a long to receive the result of the certification
-verification that was requested (using the CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER option to
-curl_easy_setopt). (Added in 7.4.2)
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_DOWNLOAD
-Pass a pointer to a double to receive the content-length of the download. This
-is the value read from the Content-Length: field. (Added in 7.6.1)
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_UPLOAD
-Pass a pointer to a double to receive the specified size of the upload.
-(Added in 7.6.1)
-.TP
-.B CURLINFO_CONTENT_TYPE
-Pass a pointer to a 'char *' to receive the content-type of the downloaded
-object. This is the value read from the Content-Type: field. If you get NULL,
-it means that the server didn't send a valid Content-Type header or that the
-protocol used doesn't support this. (Added in 7.9.4)
-.PP
-
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-If the operation was successful, CURLE_OK is returned. Otherwise an

-
-libcurl version 7.7 or later (for older versions see below): You can do any

-transfers, thus making the operations faster, less CPU intense and using less
-network resources. Just note that you will have to use
-.I curl_easy_setopt
-between the invokes to set options for the following curl_easy_perform.
-
-You must never call this function simultaneously from two places using the
-same handle. Let the function return first before invoking it another time. If
-you want parallel transfers, you must use several curl handles.
-
-Before libcurl version 7.7: You are only allowed to call this function once
-using the same handle. If you want to do repeated calls, you must call
-curl_easy_cleanup and curl_easy_init again first.
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-0 means everything was ok, non-zero means an error occurred as

-.TH curl_easy_setopt 3 "10 Dec 2001" "libcurl 7.9.2" "libcurl Manual"
-.SH NAME
-curl_easy_setopt - Set curl easy-session options
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-#include <curl/curl.h>
-
-CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLoption option, parameter);
-.ad
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-curl_easy_setopt() is used to tell libcurl how to behave. Most operations in
-libcurl have default actions, and by using the appropriate options to
-\fIcurl_easy_setopt\fP, you can change them. All options are set with the
-\fIoption\fP followed by a \fIparameter\fP. That parameter can be a long, a
-function pointer or an object pointer, all depending on what the specific
-option expects. Read this manual carefully as bad input values may cause
-libcurl to behave badly! You can only set one option in each function call. A
-typical application uses many curl_easy_setopt() calls in the setup phase.
-
-\fBNOTE:\fP strings passed to libcurl as 'char *' arguments, will not be
-copied by the library. Instead you should keep them available until libcurl no
-longer needs them. Failing to do so will cause very odd behavior or even
-crashes.
-
-\fBNOTE2:\fP options set with this function call are valid for the forthcoming
-data transfers that are performed when you invoke \fIcurl_easy_perform\fP.
-The options are not in any way reset between transfers, so if you want
-subsequent transfers with different options, you must change them between the
-transfers.
-
-The \fIhandle\fP is the return code from a \fIcurl_easy_init(3)\fP or
-\fIcurl_easy_duphandle(3)\fP call.
-.SH OPTIONS
-The options are listed in a sort of random order, but you'll figure it out!
-.TP 0.8i
-.B CURLOPT_FILE
-Data pointer to pass to the file write function. Note that if you specify the
-\fICURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION\fP, this is the pointer you'll get as input. If you
-don't use a callback, you must pass a 'FILE *' as libcurl will pass this to
-fwrite() when writing data.
-
-\fBNOTE:\fP If you're using libcurl as a win32 DLL, you MUST use the
-\fICURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION\fP if you set this option or you will experience
-crashes.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION
-Function pointer that should match the following prototype: \fBsize_t
-function( void *ptr, size_t size, size_t nmemb, void *stream);\fP This
-function gets called by libcurl as soon as there is data available to pass
-available that needs to be saved. The size of the data pointed to by \fIptr\fP
-is \fIsize\fP multiplied with \fInmemb\fP. Return the number of bytes
-actually taken care of. If that amount differs from the amount passed to your
-function, it'll signal an error to the library and it will abort the transfer
-and return \fICURLE_WRITE_ERROR\fP.
-
-Set the \fIstream\fP argument with the \fBCURLOPT_FILE\fP option.
-
-\fBNOTE:\fP you will be passed as much data as possible in all invokes, but
-you cannot possibly make any assumptions. It may be one byte, it may be
-thousands.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_INFILE
-Data pointer to pass to the file read function. Note that if you specify the
-\fICURLOPT_READFUNCTION\fP, this is the pointer you'll get as input. If you
-don't specify a read callback, this must be a valid FILE *.
-
-\fBNOTE:\fP If you're using libcurl as a win32 DLL, you MUST use a
-\fICURLOPT_READFUNCTION\fP if you set this option.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_READFUNCTION
-Function pointer that should match the following prototype: \fBsize_t
-function( void *ptr, size_t size, size_t nmemb, void *stream);\fP This
-function gets called by libcurl as soon as it needs to read data in order to
-send it to the peer. The data area pointed at by the pointer \fIptr\fP may be
-filled with at most \fIsize\fP multiplied with \fInmemb\fP number of
-bytes. Your function must return the actual number of bytes that you stored in
-that memory area. Returning 0 will signal end-of-file to the library and cause
-it to stop the current transfer.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_INFILESIZE
-When uploading a file to a remote site, this option should be used to tell
-libcurl what the expected size of the infile is.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_URL
-The actual URL to deal with. The parameter should be a char * to a zero
-terminated string. The string must remain present until curl no longer needs
-it, as it doesn't copy the string.
-
-\fBNOTE:\fP this option is (the only one) required to be set before
-\fIcurl_easy_perform(3)\fP is called.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_PROXY
-Set HTTP proxy to use. The parameter should be a char * to a zero terminated
-string holding the host name or dotted IP address. To specify port number in
-this string, append :[port] to the end of the host name. The proxy string may
-be prefixed with [protocol]:// since any such prefix will be ignored. The
-proxy's port number may optionally be specified with the separate option
-\fICURLOPT_PROXYPORT\fP.
-
-\fBNOTE:\fP when you tell the library to use a HTTP proxy, libcurl will
-transparently convert operations to HTTP even if you specify a FTP URL
-etc. This may have an impact on what other features of the library you can
-use, such as CURLOPT_QUOTE and similar FTP specifics that don't work unless
-you tunnel through the HTTP proxy. Such tunneling is activated with
-\fICURLOPT_HTTPPROXYTUNNEL\fP.
-
-\fBNOTE2:\fP libcurl respects the environment variables \fBhttp_proxy\fP,
-\fBftp_proxy\fP, \fBall_proxy\fP etc, if any of those is set.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_PROXYPORT
-Pass a long with this option to set the proxy port to connect to unless it is
-specified in the proxy string \fICURLOPT_PROXY\fP.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_HTTPPROXYTUNNEL
-Set the parameter to non-zero to get the library to tunnel all operations
-through a given HTTP proxy. Note that there is a big difference between using
-a proxy and to tunnel through it. If you don't know what this means, you
-probably don't want this tunneling option. (Added in libcurl 7.3)
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_VERBOSE
-Set the parameter to non-zero to get the library to display a lot of verbose
-information about its operations. Very useful for libcurl and/or protocol
-debugging and understanding.
-
-You hardly ever want this set in production use, you will almost always want
-this when you debug/report problems.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_HEADER
-A non-zero parameter tells the library to include the header in the body
-output. This is only relevant for protocols that actually have headers
-preceding the data (like HTTP).
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_NOPROGRESS
-A non-zero parameter tells the library to shut of the built-in progress meter
-completely.
-
-\fBNOTE:\fP future versions of libcurl is likely to not have any built-in
-progress meter at all.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_NOBODY
-A non-zero parameter tells the library to not include the body-part in the
-output. This is only relevant for protocols that have separate header and body
-parts.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_FAILONERROR
-A non-zero parameter tells the library to fail silently if the HTTP code
-returned is equal to or larger than 300. The default action would be to return
-the page normally, ignoring that code.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_UPLOAD
-A non-zero parameter tells the library to prepare for an upload. The
-CURLOPT_INFILE and CURLOPT_INFILESIZE are also interesting for uploads.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_POST
-A non-zero parameter tells the library to do a regular HTTP post. This is a
-normal application/x-www-form-urlencoded kind, which is the most commonly used
-one by HTML forms. See the CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS option for how to specify the
-data to post and CURLOPT_POSTFIELDSIZE in how to set the data size. Starting
-with libcurl 7.8, this option is obsolete. Using the CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS option
-will imply this option.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_FTPLISTONLY
-A non-zero parameter tells the library to just list the names of an ftp
-directory, instead of doing a full directory listing that would include file
-sizes, dates etc.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_FTPAPPEND
-A non-zero parameter tells the library to append to the remote file instead of
-overwrite it. This is only useful when uploading to a ftp site.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_NETRC
-A non-zero parameter tells the library to scan your \fI~/.netrc\fP file to
-find user name and password for the remote site you are about to access. Only
-machine name, user name and password is taken into account (init macros and
-similar things aren't supported).
-
-\fBNote:\fP libcurl does not verify that the file has the correct properties
-set (as the standard Unix ftp client does). It should only be readable by
-user.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION
-A non-zero parameter tells the library to follow any Location: header that the
-server sends as part of a HTTP header.
-
-\fBNOTE:\fP this means that the library will re-send the same request on the
-new location and follow new Location: headers all the way until no more such
-headers are returned. \fICURLOPT_MAXREDIRS\fP can be used to limit the number
-of redirects libcurl will follow.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_TRANSFERTEXT
-A non-zero parameter tells the library to use ASCII mode for ftp transfers,
-instead of the default binary transfer. For LDAP transfers it gets the data in
-plain text instead of HTML and for win32 systems it does not set the stdout to
-binary mode. This option can be usable when transferring text data between
-systems with different views on certain characters, such as newlines or
-similar.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_PUT
-A non-zero parameter tells the library to use HTTP PUT to transfer data. The
-data should be set with CURLOPT_INFILE and CURLOPT_INFILESIZE.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_USERPWD
-Pass a char * as parameter, which should be [user name]:[password] to use for
-the connection. If the password is left out, you will be prompted for it.
-\fICURLOPT_PASSWDFUNCTION\fP can be used to set your own prompt function.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD
-Pass a char * as parameter, which should be [user name]:[password] to use for
-the connection to the HTTP proxy. If the password is left out, you will be
-prompted for it. \fICURLOPT_PASSWDFUNCTION\fP can be used to set your own
-prompt function.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_RANGE
-Pass a char * as parameter, which should contain the specified range you
-want. It should be in the format "X-Y", where X or Y may be left out. HTTP
-transfers also support several intervals, separated with commas as in
-\fI"X-Y,N-M"\fP. Using this kind of multiple intervals will cause the HTTP
-server to send the response document in pieces (using standard MIME separation
-techniques).
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_ERRORBUFFER
-Pass a char * to a buffer that the libcurl may store human readable error
-messages in. This may be more helpful than just the return code from the
-library. The buffer must be at least CURL_ERROR_SIZE big.
-
-\fBNote:\fP if the library does not return an error, the buffer may not have
-been touched. Do not rely on the contents in those cases.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_TIMEOUT
-Pass a long as parameter containing the maximum time in seconds that you allow
-the libcurl transfer operation to take. Normally, name lookups can take a
-considerable time and limiting operations to less than a few minutes risk
-aborting perfectly normal operations. This option will cause curl to use the
-SIGALRM to enable time-outing system calls.
-
-\fBNOTE:\fP this does not work in Unix multi-threaded programs, as it uses
-signals.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS
-Pass a char * as parameter, which should be the full data to post in a HTTP
-post operation. This is a normal application/x-www-form-urlencoded kind, which
-is the most commonly used one by HTML forms. See also the CURLOPT_POST. Since
-7.8, using CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS implies CURLOPT_POST.
-
-\fBNote:\fP to make multipart/formdata posts (aka rfc1867-posts), check out
-the \fICURLOPT_HTTPPOST\fP option.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_POSTFIELDSIZE
-If you want to post data to the server without letting libcurl do a strlen()
-to measure the data size, this option must be used. When this option is used
-you can post fully binary data, which otherwise is likely to fail. If this
-size is set to zero, the library will use strlen() to get the size. (Added in
-libcurl 7.2)
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_REFERER
-Pass a pointer to a zero terminated string as parameter. It will be used to
-set the Referer: header in the http request sent to the remote server. This
-can be used to fool servers or scripts. You can also set any custom header
-with \fICURLOPT_HTTPHEADER\fP.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_USERAGENT
-Pass a pointer to a zero terminated string as parameter. It will be used to
-set the User-Agent: header in the http request sent to the remote server. This
-can be used to fool servers or scripts. You can also set any custom header
-with \fICURLOPT_HTTPHEADER\fP.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_FTPPORT
-Pass a pointer to a zero terminated string as parameter. It will be used to
-get the IP address to use for the ftp PORT instruction. The PORT instruction
-tells the remote server to connect to our specified IP address. The string may
-be a plain IP address, a host name, an network interface name (under Unix) or
-just a '-' letter to let the library use your systems default IP
-address. Default FTP operations are passive, and thus won't use PORT.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_LIMIT
-Pass a long as parameter. It contains the transfer speed in bytes per second
-that the transfer should be below during CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_TIME seconds for
-the library to consider it too slow and abort.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_TIME
-Pass a long as parameter. It contains the time in seconds that the transfer
-should be below the CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_LIMIT for the library to consider it too
-slow and abort.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_RESUME_FROM
-Pass a long as parameter. It contains the offset in number of bytes that you
-want the transfer to start from.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_COOKIE
-Pass a pointer to a zero terminated string as parameter. It will be used to
-set a cookie in the http request. The format of the string should be
-[NAME]=[CONTENTS]; Where NAME is the cookie name.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER
-Pass a pointer to a linked list of HTTP headers to pass to the server in your
-HTTP request. The linked list should be a fully valid list of \fBstruct
-curl_slist\fP structs properly filled in. Use \fIcurl_slist_append(3)\fP to
-create the list and \fIcurl_slist_free_all(3)\fP to clean up an entire
-list. If you add a header that is otherwise generated and used by libcurl
-internally, your added one will be used instead. If you add a header with no
-contents as in 'Accept:' (no data on the right side of the colon), the
-internally used header will get disabled. Thus, using this option you can add
-new headers, replace internal headers and remove internal headers.
-
-\fBNOTE:\fPThe most commonly replaced headers have "shortcuts" in the options
-CURLOPT_COOKIE, CURLOPT_USERAGENT and CURLOPT_REFERER.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_HTTPPOST
-Tells libcurl you want a multipart/formdata HTTP POST to be made and you
-instruct what data to pass on to the server. Pass a pointer to a linked list
-of HTTP post structs as parameter. The linked list should be a fully valid
-list of 'struct HttpPost' structs properly filled in. The best and most
-elegant way to do this, is to use \fIcurl_formadd(3)\fP as documented. The
-data in this list must remained intact until you close this curl handle again
-with \fIcurl_easy_cleanup(3)\fP.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_SSLCERT
-Pass a pointer to a zero terminated string as parameter. The string should be
-the file name of your certificate. The default format is "PEM" and can be
-changed with \fICURLOPT_SSLCERTTYPE\fP.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_SSLCERTTYPE
-Pass a pointer to a zero terminated string as parameter. The string should be
-the format of your certificate. Supported formats are "PEM" and "DER". (Added
-in 7.9.3)
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_SSLCERTPASSWD
-Pass a pointer to a zero terminated string as parameter. It will be used as
-the password required to use the CURLOPT_SSLCERT certificate. If the password
-is not supplied, you will be prompted for it. \fICURLOPT_PASSWDFUNCTION\fP can
-be used to set your own prompt function.
-
-\fBNOTE:\fPThis option is replaced by \fICURLOPT_SSLKEYPASSWD\fP and only
-cept for backward compatibility. You never needed a pass phrase to load
-a certificate but you need one to load your private key.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_SSLKEY
-Pass a pointer to a zero terminated string as parameter. The string should be
-the file name of your private key. The default format is "PEM" and can be
-changed with \fICURLOPT_SSLKEYTYPE\fP. (Added in 7.9.3)
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_SSLKEYTYPE
-Pass a pointer to a zero terminated string as parameter. The string should be
-the format of your private key. Supported formats are "PEM", "DER" and "ENG".
-(Added in 7.9.3)
-
-\fBNOTE:\fPThe format "ENG" enables you to load the private key from a crypto
-engine. in this case \fICURLOPT_SSLKEY\fP is used as an identifier passed to
-the engine. You have to set the crypto engine with \fICURLOPT_SSL_ENGINE\fP.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_SSLKEYASSWD
-Pass a pointer to a zero terminated string as parameter. It will be used as
-the password required to use the \fICURLOPT_SSLKEY\fP private key. If the
-password is not supplied, you will be prompted for
-it. \fICURLOPT_PASSWDFUNCTION\fP can be used to set your own prompt function.
-(Added in 7.9.3)
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_SSL_ENGINE
-Pass a pointer to a zero terminated string as parameter. It will be used as
-the identifier for the crypto engine you want to use for your private
-key. (Added in 7.9.3)
-
-\fBNOTE:\fPIf the crypto device cannot be loaded,
-\fICURLE_SSL_ENGINE_NOTFOUND\fP is returned.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_SSL_ENGINEDEFAULT
-Sets the actual crypto engine as the default for (asymetric) crypto
-operations. (Added in 7.9.3)
-
-\fBNOTE:\fPIf the crypto device cannot be set,
-\fICURLE_SSL_ENGINE_SETFAILED\fP is returned.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_CRLF
-Convert Unix newlines to CRLF newlines on FTP uploads.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_QUOTE
-Pass a pointer to a linked list of FTP commands to pass to the server prior to
-your ftp request. The linked list should be a fully valid list of 'struct
-curl_slist' structs properly filled in. Use \fIcurl_slist_append(3)\fP to
-append strings (commands) to the list, and clear the entire list afterwards
-with \fIcurl_slist_free_all(3)\fP. Disable this operation again by setting a
-NULL to this option.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_POSTQUOTE
-Pass a pointer to a linked list of FTP commands to pass to the server after
-your ftp transfer request. The linked list should be a fully valid list of
-struct curl_slist structs properly filled in as described for
-\fICURLOPT_QUOTE\fP. Disable this operation again by setting a NULL to this
-option.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_WRITEHEADER
-Pass a pointer to be used to write the header part of the received data to. If
-you don't use your own callback to take care of the writing, this must be a
-valid FILE *. See also the \fICURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION\fP option below on how to set a
-custom get-all-headers callback.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION
-Function pointer that should match the following prototype: \fIsize_t
-function( void *ptr, size_t size, size_t nmemb, void *stream);\fP. This
-function gets called by libcurl as soon as there is received header data that
-needs to be written down. The headers are guaranteed to be written one-by-one
-and only complete lines are written. Parsing headers should be easy enough
-using this. The size of the data pointed to by \fIptr\fP is \fIsize\fP
-multiplied with \fInmemb\fP. The pointer named \fIstream\fP will be the one
-you passed to libcurl with the \fICURLOPT_WRITEHEADER\fP option. Return the
-number of bytes actually written or return -1 to signal error to the library
-(it will cause it to abort the transfer with a \fICURLE_WRITE_ERROR\fP return
-code). (Added in libcurl 7.7.2)
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE
-Pass a pointer to a zero terminated string as parameter. It should contain the
-name of your file holding cookie data. The cookie data may be in Netscape /
-Mozilla cookie data format or just regular HTTP-style headers dumped to a
-file.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_SSLVERSION
-Pass a long as parameter. Set what version of SSL to attempt to use, 2 or
-3. By default, the SSL library will try to solve this by itself although some
-servers make this difficult why you at times may have to use this option.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_TIMECONDITION
-Pass a long as parameter. This defines how the CURLOPT_TIMEVALUE time value is
-treated. You can set this parameter to TIMECOND_IFMODSINCE or
-TIMECOND_IFUNMODSINCE. This is a HTTP-only feature. (TBD)
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_TIMEVALUE
-Pass a long as parameter. This should be the time in seconds since 1 jan 1970,
-and the time will be used as specified in CURLOPT_TIMECONDITION or if that
-isn't used, it will be TIMECOND_IFMODSINCE by default.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST
-Pass a pointer to a zero terminated string as parameter. It will be user
-instead of GET or HEAD when doing the HTTP request. This is useful for doing
-DELETE or other more or less obscure HTTP requests. Don't do this at will,
-make sure your server supports the command first.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_STDERR
-Pass a FILE * as parameter. This is the stream to use instead of stderr
-internally when reporting errors.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_INTERFACE
-Pass a char * as parameter. This set the interface name to use as outgoing
-network interface. The name can be an interface name, an IP address or a host
-name. (Added in libcurl 7.3)
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_KRB4LEVEL
-Pass a char * as parameter. Set the krb4 security level, this also enables
-krb4 awareness. This is a string, 'clear', 'safe', 'confidential' or
-\&'private'. If the string is set but doesn't match one of these, 'private'
-will be used. Set the string to NULL to disable kerberos4. The kerberos
-support only works for FTP. (Added in libcurl 7.3)
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_PROGRESSFUNCTION
-Function pointer that should match the \fIcurl_progress_callback\fP prototype
-found in \fI<curl/curl.h>\fP. This function gets called by libcurl instead of
-its internal equivalent with a frequent interval during data transfer.
-Unknown/unused argument values will be set to zero (like if you only download
-data, the upload size will remain 0). Returning a non-zero value from this
-callback will cause libcurl to abort the transfer and return
-\fICURLE_ABORTED_BY_CALLBACK\fP.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_PROGRESSDATA
-Pass a pointer that will be untouched by libcurl and passed as the first
-argument in the progress callback set with \fICURLOPT_PROGRESSFUNCTION\fP.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER
-Pass a long that is set to a non-zero value to make curl verify the peer's
-certificate. The certificate to verify against must be specified with the
-CURLOPT_CAINFO option. (Added in 7.4.2)
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_CAINFO
-Pass a char * to a zero terminated file naming holding the certificate to
-verify the peer with. This only makes sense when used in combination with the
-CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER option. (Added in 7.4.2)
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_PASSWDFUNCTION
-Pass a pointer to a \fIcurl_passwd_callback\fP function that will be called
-instead of the internal one if libcurl requests a password. The function must
-match this prototype: \fBint my_getpass(void *client, char *prompt, char*
-buffer, int buflen );\fP. If set to NULL, it equals to making the function
-always fail. If the function returns a non-zero value, it will abort the
-operation and an error (CURLE_BAD_PASSWORD_ENTERED) will be returned.
-\fIclient\fP is a generic pointer, see \fICURLOPT_PASSWDDATA\fP. \fIprompt\fP
-is a zero-terminated string that is text that prefixes the input request.
-\fIbuffer\fP is a pointer to data where the entered password should be stored
-and \fIbuflen\fP is the maximum number of bytes that may be written in the
-buffer. (Added in 7.4.2)
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_PASSWDDATA
-Pass a void * to whatever data you want. The passed pointer will be the first
-argument sent to the specifed \fICURLOPT_PASSWDFUNCTION\fP function. (Added in
-7.4.2)
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_FILETIME
-Pass a long. If it is a non-zero value, libcurl will attempt to get the
-modification date of the remote document in this operation. This requires that
-the remote server sends the time or replies to a time querying command. The
-\fIcurl_easy_getinfo(3)\fP function with the \fICURLINFO_FILETIME\fP argument
-can be used after a transfer to extract the received time (if any). (Added in
-7.5)
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS
-Pass a long. The set number will be the redirection limit. If that many
-redirections have been followed, the next redirect will cause an error
-(\fICURLE_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS\fP). This option only makes sense if the
-\fICURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION\fP is used at the same time. (Added in 7.5)
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_MAXCONNECTS
-Pass a long. The set number will be the persistant connection cache size. The
-set amount will be the maximum amount of simultaneous connections that libcurl
-may cache between file transfers. Default is 5, and there isn't much point in
-changing this value unless you are perfectly aware of how this work and
-changes libcurl's behaviour.
-
-\fBNOTE:\fP if you already have performed transfers with this curl handle,
-setting a smaller MAXCONNECTS than before may cause open connections to get
-closed unnecessarily. (Added in 7.7)
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_CLOSEPOLICY
-Pass a long. This option sets what policy libcurl should use when the
-connection cache is filled and one of the open connections has to be closed to
-make room for a new connection. This must be one of the CURLCLOSEPOLICY_*
-defines. Use \fICURLCLOSEPOLICY_LEAST_RECENTLY_USED\fP to make libcurl close
-the connection that was least recently used, that connection is also least
-likely to be capable of re-use. Use \fICURLCLOSEPOLICY_OLDEST\fP to make
-libcurl close the oldest connection, the one that was created first among the
-ones in the connection cache. The other close policies are not support
-yet. (Added in 7.7)
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_FRESH_CONNECT
-Pass a long. Set to non-zero to make the next transfer use a new (fresh)
-connection by force. If the connection cache is full before this connection,
-one of the existing connections will be closed as according to the selected or
-default policy. This option should be used with caution and only if you
-understand what it does. Set this to 0 to have libcurl attempt re-using an
-existing connection (default behavior). (Added in 7.7)
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_FORBID_REUSE
-Pass a long. Set to non-zero to make the next transfer explicitly close the
-connection when done. Normally, libcurl keep all connections alive when done
-with one transfer in case there comes a succeeding one that can re-use them.
-This option should be used with caution and only if you understand what it
-does. Set to 0 to have libcurl keep the connection open for possibly later
-re-use (default behavior). (Added in 7.7)
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_RANDOM_FILE
-Pass a char * to a zero terminated file name. The file will be used to read
-from to seed the random engine for SSL. The more random the specified file is,
-the more secure will the SSL connection become.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_EGDSOCKET
-Pass a char * to the zero terminated path name to the Entropy Gathering Daemon
-socket. It will be used to seed the random engine for SSL.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT
-Pass a long. It should contain the maximum time in seconds that you allow the
-connection to the server to take. This only limits the connection phase, once
-it has connected, this option is of no more use. Set to zero to disable
-connection timeout (it will then only timeout on the system's internal
-timeouts). See also the \fICURLOPT_TIMEOUT\fP option.
-
-\fBNOTE:\fP this does not work in unix multi-threaded programs, as it uses
-signals.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_HTTPGET
-Pass a long. If the long is non-zero, this forces the HTTP request to get back
-to GET. Only really usable if POST, PUT or a custom request have been used
-previously using the same curl handle. (Added in 7.8.1)
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST
-Pass a long. Set if we should verify the Common name from the peer certificate
-in the SSL handshake, set 1 to check existence, 2 to ensure that it matches
-the provided hostname. (Added in 7.8.1)
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR
-Pass a file name as char *, zero terminated. This will make libcurl dump all
-internally known cookies to the specified file when \fIcurl_easy_cleanup(3)\fP
-is called. If no cookies are known, no file will be created. Specify "-" to
-instead have the cookies written to stdout.
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_SSL_CIPHER_LIST
-Pass a char *, pointing to a zero terminated string holding the list of
-ciphers to use for the SSL connection. The list must be syntactly correct, it
-consists of one or more cipher strings separated by colons. Commas or spaces
-are also acceptable separators but colons are normally used, \!, \- and \+ can
-be used as operators. Valid examples of cipher lists include 'RC4-SHA',
-\'SHA1+DES\', 'TLSv1' and 'DEFAULT'. The default list is normally set when you
-compile OpenSSL.
-
-You'll find more details about cipher lists on this URL:
-\fIhttp://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/ciphers.html\fP
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION
-Pass a long, set to one of the values described below. They force libcurl to
-use the specific HTTP versions. This is not sensible to do unless you have a
-good reason.
-.RS
-.TP 5
-.B CURL_HTTP_VERSION_NONE
-We don't care about what version the library uses. libcurl will use whatever
-it thinks fit.
-.TP
-.B CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_0
-Enforce HTTP 1.0 requests.
-.TP
-.B CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1
-Enforce HTTP 1.1 requests.
-.RE
-.TP
-.B CURLOPT_FTP_USE_EPSV
-Pass a long. If the value is non-zero, it tells curl to use the EPSV command
-when doing passive FTP downloads (which is always does by default). Using EPSV
-means that it will first attempt to use EPSV before using PASV, but if you
-pass FALSE (zero) to this option, it will not try using EPSV, only plain PASV.
-.PP
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-CURLE_OK (zero) means that the option was set properly, non-zero means an
-error occurred as \fI<curl/curl.h>\fP defines.

-.TH curl_formadd 3 "1 Match 2002" "libcurl 7.9.1" "libcurl Manual"
-.SH NAME
-curl_formadd - add a section to a multipart/formdata HTTP POST
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B #include <curl/curl.h>
-.sp
-.BI "int curl_formadd(struct HttpPost ** " firstitem,
-.BI "struct HttpPost ** " lastitem, " ...);"
-.ad
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-curl_formadd() is used to append sections when building a multipart/formdata
-HTTP POST (sometimes refered to as rfc1867-style posts). Append one section at
-a time until you've added all the sections you want included and then you pass
-the \fIfirstitem\fP pointer as parameter to \fBCURLOPT_HTTPPOST\fP.
-\fIlastitem\fP is set after each call and on repeated invokes it should be
-left as set to allow repeated invokes to find the end of the list faster.
-
-After the \fIlastitem\fP pointer follow the real arguments. (If the following
-description confuses you, jump directly to the examples):
-
-\fBCURLFORM_COPYNAME\fP or \fBCURLFORM_PTRNAME\fP followed by a string is used
-for the name of the section. Optionally one may use \fBCURLFORM_NAMELENGTH\fP
-to specify the length of the name (allowing null characters within the
-name). All options that use the word COPY in their names copy the given
-contents, while the ones with PTR in their names simply points to the (static)
-data you must make sure remain until curl no longer needs it.
-
-The four options for providing values are: \fBCURLFORM_COPYCONTENTS\fP,
-\fBCURLFORM_PTRCONTENTS\fP, \fBCURLFORM_FILE\fP, or \fBCURLFORM_FILECONTENT\fP
-followed by a char or void pointer (allowed for PTRCONTENTS).
-
-\fBCURLFORM_FILECONTENT\fP does a normal post like \fBCURLFORM_COPYCONTENTS\fP
-but the actual value is read from the filename given as a string.
-
-Other arguments may be \fBCURLFORM_CONTENTTYPE\fP if the user wishes to
-specify one (for FILE if no type is given the library tries to provide the
-correct one; for CONTENTS no Content-Type is sent in this case).
-
-For \fBCURLFORM_PTRCONTENTS\fP or \fBCURLFORM_COPYNAME\fP the user may also
-add \fBCURLFORM_CONTENTSLENGTH\fP followed by the length as a long (if not
-given the library will use strlen to determine the length).
-
-For \fBCURLFORM_FILE\fP the user may send multiple files in one section by
-providing multiple \fBCURLFORM_FILE\fP arguments each followed by the filename
-(and each FILE is allowed to have a CONTENTTYPE).
-
-Another possibility to send single or multiple files in one section is to use
-\fBCURLFORM_ARRAY\fP that gets a struct curl_forms array pointer as its
-value. Each structure element has a CURLformoption and a char pointer. For the
-options only \fBCURLFORM_FILE\fP, \fBCURLFORM_CONTENTTYPE\fP, and
-\fBCURLFORM_END\fP (that is used to determine the end of the array and thus
-must be the option of the last and no other element of the curl_forms array)
-are allowed. The effect of this parameter is the same as giving multiple
-\fBCURLFORM_FILE\fP options possibly with \fBCURLFORM_CONTENTTYPE\fP after or
-before each \fBCURLFORM_FILE\fP option.
-
-Should you need to specify extra headers for the form POST section, use
-\fBCURLFORM_CONTENTHEADER\fP. This takes a curl_slist prepared in the usual way
-using \fBcurl_slist_append\fP and appends the list of headers to those Curl
-automatically generates for \fBCURLFORM_CONTENTTYPE\fP and the content
-disposition. The list must exist while the POST occurs, if you free it before
-the post completes you may experience problems.
-
-The last argument in such an array must always be \fBCURLFORM_END\fP.
-
-The pointers \fI*firstitem\fP and \fI*lastitem\fP should both be pointing to
-NULL in the first call to this function. All list-data will be allocated by
-the function itself. You must call \fIcurl_formfree\fP after the form post has
-been done to free the resources again.
-
-This function will copy all input data except the data pointed to by the
-arguments after \fBCURLFORM_PTRNAME\fP and \fBCURLFORM_PTRCONTENTS\fP and keep
-its own version of it allocated until you call \fIcurl_formfree\fP. When
-you've passed the pointer to \fIcurl_easy_setopt\fP, you must not free the
-list until after you've called \fIcurl_easy_cleanup\fP for the curl handle. If
-you provide a pointer as an arguments after \fBCURLFORM_PTRNAME\fP or
-\fBCURLFORM_PTRCONTENTS\fP you must ensure that the pointer stays valid until
-you call \fIcurl_form_free\fP and \fIcurl_easy_cleanup\fP.
-
-See example below.

-Returns non-zero if an error occurs.

-January 1, 1970
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B #include <curl/curl.h>
-.sp
-.BI "time_t curl_getdate(char *" datestring ", time_t *"now" );
-.ad
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-This function returns the number of seconds since January 1st 1970, for the
-date and time that the
-.I datestring
-parameter specifies. The
-.I now
-parameter is there and should hold the current time to allow the datestring to
-specify relative dates/times. Read further in the date string parser section
-below.
-.SH PARSING DATES AND TIMES
-A "date" is a string, possibly empty, containing many items separated by
-whitespace. The whitespace may be omitted when no ambiguity arises. The
-empty string means the beginning of today (i.e., midnight). Order of the
-items is immaterial. A date string may contain many flavors of items:
-.TP 0.8i
-.B calendar date items
-This can be specified in a number of different ways. Including 1970-09-17, 70-9-17, 70-09-17, 9/17/72, 24 September 1972, 24 Sept 72, 24 Sep 72, Sep 24, 1972, 24-sep-72, 24sep72.
-The year can also be omitted, for example: 9/17 or "sep 17".
-.TP
-.B time of the day items
-This string specifies the time on a given day. Syntax supported includes:
-18:19:0, 18:19, 6:19pm, 18:19-0500 (for specifying the time zone as well).
-.TP
-.B time zone items
-Specifies international time zone. There are a few acronyms supported, but in
-general you should instead use the specific realtive time compared to
-UTC. Supported formats include: -1200, MST, +0100.
-.TP
-.B day of the week items
-Specifies a day of the week. If this is mentioned alone it means that day of
-the week in the future.
-
-Days of the week may be spelled out in full: `Sunday', `Monday', etc or they
-may be abbreviated to their first three letters, optionally followed by a
-period. The special abbreviations `Tues' for `Tuesday', `Wednes' for
-`Wednesday' and `Thur' or `Thurs' for `Thursday' are also allowed.
-
-A number may precede a day of the week item to move forward supplementary
-weeks. It is best used in expression like `third monday'. In this context,
-`last DAY' or `next DAY' is also acceptable; they move one week before or
-after the day that DAY by itself would represent.
-.TP
-.B relative items
-A relative item adjusts a date (or the current date if none) forward or
-backward. Example syntax includes: "1 year", "1 year ago", "2 days", "4
-weeks".
-
-The string `tomorrow' is worth one day in the future (equivalent to `day'),
-the string `yesterday' is worth one day in the past (equivalent to `day ago').
-.TP
-.B pure numbers
-If the decimal number is of the form YYYYMMDD and no other calendar date item
-appears before it in the date string, then YYYY is read as the year, MM as the
-month number and DD as the day of the month, for the specified calendar date.
-.PP
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-This function returns zero when it fails to parse the date string. Otherwise
-it returns the number of seconds as described.
-.SH AUTHORS
-Originally written by Steven M. Bellovin <smb@research.att.com> while at the
-University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Later tweaked by a couple of
-people on Usenet. Completely overhauled by Rich $alz <rsalz@bbn.com> and Jim
-Berets <jberets@bbn.com> in August, 1990.

-curl_getenv() is a portable wrapper for the getenv() function, meant to

-systems libcurl builds on (including win32).
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-If successful, curl_getenv() returns a pointer to the value of the specified

-free() this when the data has completed to serve its purpose. When
-.I curl_getenv()
-fails to find the specified name, it returns a null pointer.
-.SH NOTE
-Under unix operating systems, there isn't any point in returning an allocated
-memory, although other systems won't work properly if this isn't done. The
-unix implementation thus have to suffer slightly from the drawbacks of other
-systems.

-
-To easily use all these cloned functions instead of the normal ones, #define

-.SH NAME
-curl_strequal, curl_strnequal - case insensitive string comparisons
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B #include <curl/curl.h>
-.sp
-.BI "int curl_strequal(char *" str1 ", char *" str2 ");"
-.sp
-.BI "int curl_strenqual(char *" str1 ", char *" str2 ", size_t " len ");"
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The
-.B curl_strequal()
-function compares the two strings \fIstr1\fP and \fIstr2\fP, ignoring the case
-of the characters. It returns a non-zero (TRUE) integer if the strings are
-identical.
-.sp
-The \fBcurl_strnequal()\fP function is similar, except it only compares the
-first \fIlen\fP characters of \fIstr1\fP.
-.sp
-These functions are provided by libcurl to enable applications to compare
-strings in a truly portable manner. There are no standard portable case
-insensitive string comparison functions. These two works on all platforms.
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-Non-zero if the strings are identical. Zero if they're not.
-.SH "SEE ALSO"
-.BR strcmp "(3), " strcasecmp "(3)"

-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B #include <curl/curl.h>
-.sp
-.BI "char *curl_unescape( char *" url ", int "length " );"
-.ad
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-This function will convert the given URL encoded input string to a "plain
-string" and return that as a new allocated string. All input characters that
-are URL encoded (%XX where XX is a two-digit hexadecimal number, or +) will be
-converted to their plain text versions (up to a ? letter, no letters to the
-right of a ? letter will be converted).
-
-If the 'length' argument is set to 0, curl_unescape() will use strlen() on the
-input 'url' string to find out the size.
-
-You must free() the returned string when you're done with it.
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-A pointer to a zero terminated string or NULL if it failed.

-.TH libcurl 5 "14 August 2001" "libcurl 7.8.1" "libcurl overview"
-.SH NAME
-libcurl \- client-side URL transfers
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-This is an overview on how to use libcurl in your C programs. There are
-specific man pages for each function mentioned in here. There's also the
-libcurl-the-guide document for a complete tutorial to programming with
-libcurl.
-
-libcurl can also be used directly from within your Java, PHP, Perl, Ruby or
-Tcl programs as well, look elsewhere for documentation on this!
-
-All applications that use libcurl should call \fIcurl_global_init()\fP exactly
-once before any libcurl function can be used. After all usage of libcurl is
-complete, it \fBmust\fP call \fIcurl_global_cleanup()\fP. In between those two
-calls, you can use libcurl as described below.
-
-When using libcurl you init your session and get a handle, which you use as
-input to the following interface functions you use. Use \fIcurl_easy_init()\fP
-to get the handle.
-
-You continue by setting all the options you want in the upcoming transfer,
-most important among them is the URL itself (you can't transfer anything
-without a specified URL as you may have figured out yourself). You might want
-to set some callbacks as well that will be called from the library when data
-is available etc. \fIcurl_easy_setopt()\fP is there for this.
-
-When all is setup, you tell libcurl to perform the transfer using
-\fIcurl_easy_perform()\fP. It will then do the entire operation and won't
-return until it is done (successfully or not).
-
-After the transfer has been made, you can set new options and make another
-transfer, or if you're done, cleanup the session by calling
-\fIcurl_easy_cleanup()\fP. If you want persistant connections, you don't
-cleanup immediately, but instead run ahead and perform other transfers using
-the same handle. See the chapter below for Persistant Connections.
-
-There is also a series of other helpful functions to use. They are:
-
-.RS
-.TP 10
-.B curl_version()
-displays the libcurl version
-.TP
-.B curl_getdate()
-converts a date string to time_t
-.TP
-.B curl_getenv()
-portable environment variable reader
-.TP
-.B curl_easy_getinfo()
-get information about a performed transfer
-.TP
-.B curl_formadd()
-helps building a HTTP form POST
-.TP
-.B curl_formfree()
-free a list built with curl_formparse()/curl_formadd()
-.TP
-.B curl_slist_append()
-builds a linked list
-.TP
-.B curl_slist_free_all()
-frees a whole curl_slist
-.TP
-.B curl_mprintf()
-portable printf() functions
-.TP
-.B curl_strequal()
-portable case insensitive string comparisons
-.RE
-
-.SH "LINKING WITH LIBCURL"
-Starting with 7.7.2 (on unix-like machines), there's a tool named curl-config
-that gets installed with the rest of the curl stuff when 'make install' is
-performed.
-
-curl-config is added to make it easier for applications to link with libcurl
-and developers to learn about libcurl and how to use it.
-
-Run 'curl-config --libs' to get the (additional) linker options you need to
-link with the particular version of libcurl you've installed.
-
-For details, see the curl-config.1 man page.
-.SH "LIBCURL SYMBOL NAMES"
-All public functions in the libcurl interface are prefixed with 'curl_' (with
-a lowercase c). You can find other functions in the library source code, but
-other prefixes indicate the functions are private and may change without
-further notice in the next release.
-
-Only use documented functions and functionality!
-.SH "PORTABILITY"
-libcurl works
-.B exactly
-the same, on any of the platforms it compiles and builds on.
-
-There's only one caution, and that is the win32 platform that may(*) require
-you to init the winsock stuff before you use the libcurl functions. Details on
-this are noted on the curl_easy_init() man page.
-
-(*) = it appears as if users of the cygwin environment get this done
-automatically, also libcurl 7.8.1 and later can handle this for you.
-.SH "THREADS"
-Never ever call curl-functions simultaneously using the same handle from
-several threads. libcurl is thread-safe and can be used in any number of
-threads, but you must use separate curl handles if you want to use libcurl in
-more than one thread simultaneously.
-.SH "PERSISTANT CONNECTIONS"
-With libcurl 7.7, persistant connections were added. Persistant connections
-means that libcurl can re-use the same connection for several transfers, if
-the conditions are right.
-
-libcurl will *always* attempt to use persistant connections. Whenever you use
-curl_easy_perform(), libcurl will attempt to use an existing connection to do
-the transfer, and if none exists it'll open a new one that will be subject
-for re-use on a possible following call to curl_easy_perform().
-
-To allow libcurl to take full advantage of persistant connections, you should
-do as many of your file transfers as possible using the same curl
-handle. When you call curl_easy_cleanup(), all the possibly open connections
-held by libcurl will be closed and forgotten.
-
-Note that the options set with curl_easy_setopt() will be used in on every
-repeat curl_easy_perform() call
-.SH "COMPATIBILITY WITH OLDER LIBCURLS"
-Repeated curl_easy_perform() calls on the same handle were not supported in
-pre-7.7 versions, and caused confusion and undefined behaviour.
