After a few years off, I've made a new release to guile-curl. In the meantime, Guile's acquired quite a few ways to deal with http. But, for more obscure types of URLs, curl can be pretty valuable. You never know when you'll need to use tftp.
README excerpt: guile-curl is a project that has procedures that allow Guile to do client-side URL transfers, like requesting documents from http or ftp servers. It is based on the libcurl library. NEWS excerpt: For Release 0.2 - Update to recent curl library - Add support for all current options, including those that take slist and httppost - Fix guile-1.8 and guile-2.0 specific functionality - Fixes for i386-unknown-openbsd5.2 - New debugging function %curl-dump-handle tarball: http://www.lonelycactus.com/tarball/guilecurl-0.2.tar.gz source code: http://github.com/spk121/guile-curl home page: http://www.lonelycactus.com/guile-curl.html Thanks, Mike Gran
