Curl is a software (as wget) than you can install in a linux system (for Debian and derivatives):
sudo apt-get install curl You can run curl from the bash shell or a shell script. More info: http://curl.haxx.se/docs/faq.html Also you can find a Windows/MSDOS version: http://curl.haxx.se/download.html, and a python wrapper for curl: http://pycurl.sourceforge.net/ Greetings.
