Geeks of Mastodon, C writers and API whisperers, are you bored and without a short project?
I would love for #CURL to be able to list Samba directories. Last year I made a PR allowing for local directories listing and wanted to do the the same for smb, but without success. I think succeeding requires knowledge of Windows APIs.
I can provide some help getting it merged.
This is where I got stuck: github.com/colinleroy/curl/com…
(the magic should happen in smb_send_open_directory)

nghttp2: use custom memory functions by eeverettrbx · Pull Request #15527 · curl/curl

#curl is now officially running more than 200 CI jobs per PR.
Most of them run about 2000 tests each.
Almost 400K test runs in total.
#humans make me sad.
#CURL is my lovely gem, a masterpiece they ever created, but what do I see on their documentation pages? This:
CURLcode res = ...
if(!res) {

That's how they check for success, meow.
On, no. Meow! Meow! Meow!
And this does not discourage humans to write such posts

@bagder wanted to check if there is any option/tool that you are aware of that will allow me to filter out ads from a page when downloading it using curl. (Similar functionality to how uBlock Origin works for a browser.
Tried searching on the net but didn't find anything relevant.
If this Election Day thing is a huge success, maybe we should prepare two release versions where people can vote on?
One with increased stability and performance. One that deletes all files from previous versions and tries to occupy all memory.
We should not be making those decisions for you!
