+PycURL is a Python interface to libcurl. PycURL can be used to fetch
+objects identified by a URL from a Python program, similar to the urllib
+Python module. PycURL is mature, very fast, and supports a lot of features.
+Overview
+
+ * libcurl is a free and easy-to-use client-side URL transfer library,
+ supporting FTP, FTPS, HTTP, HTTPS, GOPHER, TELNET, DICT, FILE and
+ LDAP. libcurl supports HTTPS certificates, HTTP POST, HTTP PUT,
+ FTP uploading, kerberos, HTTP form based upload, proxies, cookies,
+ user+password authentication, file transfer resume, http proxy tunneling
+ and more!
+
+ * libcurl is highly portable, it builds and works identically on
+ numerous platforms, including Solaris, NetBSD, FreeBSD, OpenBSD,
+ Darwin, HPUX, IRIX, AIX, Tru64, Linux, Windows, Amiga, OS/2, BeOs,
+ Mac OS X, Ultrix, QNX, OpenVMS, RISC OS, Novell NetWare, DOS and more...
