Thanks that fixed it! Although when you call it directly from the command
line, it's fine to have the space there!


I'd argue that fixed a symptom, but not the problem.

As others have said, launching a task to execute curl is just about as
wasteful and inefficient as you can get.

What others haven't mentioned is that it is also a potential security hole or source of confusion for your users. Namely, packing up command lines and
then executing sub shells is rife with fragility and security issues.


I do agree, but I really need to use curl, and this is not a product. It's
for a controlled environment. I will entirely replace curl later.

If you need curl functionality, you may want to consider using libcurl instead of the command line app.
