Yes. >If so, where can I find some decent examples? >(the ones listed on the pycurl website are not what I'd call decent :-S) Sorry, I mostly have been working on our Mac port, so I'm not sure what's needed to make this work on Windows. Did you try downloading the PyCurl binary? Maybe it statically links libcurl on Windows. What do you need to know for a decent example? -- Aahz (a...@pythoncraft.com) <*> http://www.pythoncraft.com/ "...string iteration isn't about treating strings as sequences of strings, it's about treating strings as sequences of characters.
