- * NAME curl_open()
- *
- * DESCRIPTION
- *
- * Opens a general curl session. It does not try to connect or do anything
- * on the network because of this call. The specified URL is only required
- * to enable curl to figure out what protocol to "activate".
- *
- * A session should be looked upon as a series of requests to a single host.  A
- * session interacts with one host only, using one single protocol.
- *
- * The URL is not required. If set to "" or NULL, it can still be set later
- * using the curl_setopt() function. If the curl_connect() function is called
- * without the URL being known, it will return error.
- *
- * EXAMPLE
- *
- * CURLcode result;
- * CURL *curl;
- * result = curl_open(&curl, "http://curl.haxx.nu/libcurl/");
- * if(result != CURL_OK) {
- *   return result;

- * DESCRIPTION

- * NAME curl_do()
- *
- * DESCRIPTION
- *
- * (Note: May 3rd 2000: this function does not currently allow you to
- * specify a document, it will use the one set previously)
- *
- * This function asks for the particular document, file or resource that
- * resides on the server we have connected to. You may specify a full URL,
- * just an absolute path or even a relative path. That means, if you're just
- * getting one file from the remote site, you can use the same URL as input
- * for both curl_open() as well as for this function.
- *
- * In the even there is a host name, port number, user name or password parts
- * in the URL, you can use the 'flags' argument to ignore them completely, or
- * at your choice, make the function fail if you're trying to get a URL from
- * different host than you connected to with curl_connect().
- *
- * You can only get one document at a time using the same connection. When one
- * document has been received you can although request again.
- *
- * When the transfer is done, curl_done() MUST be called.
- *
- * EXAMPLE
- *
- * CURLCode result;
- * char *url;
- * CURLconnect *connect;
- * result = curl_do(connect, url, CURL_DO_NONE); */

- * char *url;
- * CURLconnect *connect;
