             Frequently Asked Questions about Curl

@@ -29,3 +29,12 @@ Date: 19 November 1999
  I am very interested in once and for all getting some kind of report or
  README file from those who have used libcurl in a threaded environment,
  since I haven't and I get this question more and more frequently!

4. Why doesn't my posting using -F work?

  You can't simply use -F or -d at your choice. The web server that will
  receive your post assumes one of the formats. If the form you're trying to
  "fake" sets the type to 'multipart/form-data', than and only then you must
  use the -F type. In all the most common cases, you should use -d which then
  causes a posting with the type 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'.

                                How To Compile

Curl has been compiled and built on numerous different operating systems. The
way to proceed is mainly devided in two different ways: the unix way or the
windows way.

If you're using Windows (95, 98, NT) or OS/2, you should continue reading from
the Win32 header below. All other systems should be capable of being installed
as described un the the UNIX header.
