Have you read the INSTALL document that comes with the source code? That gives instructions for installing curl in many different environments. > After typing pkg install curl-7.31.0 it gives error: package is missing file > DESCRIPTION That doesn't sounds like any of the instructions in INSTALL.

Octave? Is there a curl binding to Octave? You'll have to more carefully explain what exactly you're trying to accomplish, because it's not clear to me what you're really trying to do. If you're looking for a curl or libcurl binary package, you can look at http://curl.haxx.se/dlwiz/, but if you want curl/libcurl in support of another program, you'll have to read that program's instructions on how to do it, because there's no way for the curl project to know how random third parties are using curl. >>> Dan ------------------------------------------------------------------- List admin: http://cool.haxx.se/list/listinfo/curl-library Etiquette: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/etiquette.html
