  There exist many language-interfaces for curl that integrates it better with

  various languages. If you are fluid in a script language, you may very well

  opt to use such an interface instead of using the command line tool.

  There exist many language interfaces/bindings for curl that integrates it

  better with various languages. If you are fluid in a script language, you

  may very well opt to use such an interface instead of using the command line

  tool.

  At the time of writing, there are bindings for the five language mentioned

  above, but chances are there are even more by the time you read this. Or you

        http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/

  PHP4 has the ability to use libcurl as an internal module if built with that

  option enabled. You then get a set of extra functions that can be used

  within your PHP programs. You find all details about those functions in the

  curl section in the PHP manual, see the online version at:

        http://www.php.net/manual/ref.curl.php

  PHP also offers the option to run a command line, and then you can of course

  invoke the curl tool using a command line. This is the way to use curl if

  you're using PHP3 or PHP4 built without curl module support.

  In December 2001, there are interfaces available for the following

  languages: C/C++, Cocoa, Dylan, Java, Perl, PHP, Python, Rexx, Ruby, Scheme

  and Tcl. By the time you read this, additional ones may have appeared!
