This seems contradictory. The internet library is not required since
POST is implemented in the engine. But if it's included, it will be
used. But mobile doesn't support it.

I believe that bit of advice might be a little out of date. If you include the internet library (and tsNet) then the 'post' command will use tsNet.

LibUrl has been an option on mobile since we added socket support, and tsNet has a liburl driver which replaces the (script) socket-based version of liburl with tsNet's internal operations.

So include libUrl and you get normal libUrl; include libUrl and tsNet and you get libUrl driven by tsNet; include neither and you get the in-engine implementation.

Warmest Regards,

Mark.
