You asked, I heard you. #curl --resolve with wildcard support for port number:

github.com/curl/curl/pull/1398…

Let's you do this to redirect all host names against all ports used in the cmdline to 127.0.0.1:

curl --resolve *:*:127.0.0.1 example.com

#curl


Do you think we should create --show-headers the new name (alias) for #curl's --include option, to make it easier to remember and know what it does?

#curl


Do you think #curl -O on a URL that ends with a trailing slash should pick a default file name to save the content in ?

MQTT in #Xojo

We can use our #RabbitMQ plugin/classes to connect to RabbitMQ server with MQTT Plugin.

Or use #CURL functions to connect directly to MQTT server and post new messages and subscribe to a topic.

Great way to automate something.

Steamdb lists *more than* 10,000 titles on Steam that use #curl

Next bike-shed opportunity in #curl: should it special case the .i2p TLD (as well)?

If you subscribe to my weekly #email, you will get a full nerd report every week about what I have been up to and will do next. Mostly about #curl, open source, networking and related stuff.

At no cost. No ads. No requirements. If you want to.

I usually toot new entries here on Mastodon.


I started a discussion (well, Friday afternoons are good for those) on the possiblity/benefits of a 'curl-agent'.

The #curl website has been hosted by #Fastly CDN for over seven years now. I cannot ask for a better service and a friendlier company to help us.

Starting now they offer a free tier. fastly.com/pricing/

Here's my blog post from seven years ago: daniel.haxx.se/blog/2017/05/02…


On this day, exactly four years ago, #curl celebrated getting its 800th commit author.

Since then, 478 additional authors have contributed to the project. A 60% author growth in just four years.

Would you like a "num_retries" variable for #curl's --write-out format?

Some of the emails I get are truly sad reflections of the complicated and rather sorry state of things we are in. Like this.

(also, apparently #curl is used in another popular game)

"Rainbow 6 Siege Activation issue"

With this newcomer added, the graph of graphs in the #curl dashboard looks like...

Author density. Number of commit authors shown by git blame in product code per KLOC. In #curl. Over time.

Because I was reminded. Remember when PowerShell went Open Source eight years ago and I submitted a PR the next day proposing to remove the #curl alias?

There is always another windmill to fight!

#Windows users running stupid scanners now contact us for support regarding CVE-2023-46218 which the scanners say affects #curl 8.4.0 shipped by Microsoft.

It would, if their version was built to use #iibpsl, a prereq for this CVE, which #Microsoft does not.

Security scanners. A snake oil business.

The request is being made 👀 But it seems that #curl thinks it is failing
#curl


#curl is almost there 👀
#curl


It works! After various modifications on Winsock2 and curl itself, #curl 8.4.0 can run on Windows NT 3.51! :win3:

I will release the source for both of them soon
