I've was working on libcurl support for a bit (as a module), about a month
ago, but I got a little too busy (which happens to be clearing up). My
approach is to use an OOP approach, something like:
$url = new curl("http://www.php.net");
$url->someopt ("yada");
$url->execute();
$url->free();
I should be done (famous last words) in about a week or so. Any comments,
questions, suggestions?
