I am EXECUTE ... CAPTURING VARIABLE.

I have done this heaps of times with text and it works beautifully.

I tried lots of different ways to make cURL output to a file and always
failed.

Even the straightforward curl -s URL -o <filename>

I even posted a question on the cURL website sometime ago but didn't
get a reasonable response.  I suspect they are a little intolerant of
newbie's or
unusual environments (UniVerse).

: How exactly are you capturing the output from curl?  Curl has an option to
: direct it's output to a file instead of stdout (--output filename).  You
: might try sending the output to a flat file in a directory that's defined
as
: a "dir" type file in UV.  Then you can simply open the file and read the
: item in your program.

: I apologise if this question has been asked before but I tried searching

: I execute a DOS (cURL) function and get back binary data.  I expect about

: which is converted to hex 0D0A.
:
: I am fairly sure this is being done by UniVerse (on WinXP) as the execute

:
: Are there any OPTIONS directives or SYSTEM commands I can set to prevent
the
: truncation?
