curl.egg Using curl you can easily incorporate http, ssl, ftp and other file transfer protocols into your chicken application.
This is still very alpha software, but is usable and reliable for basic http get operations. I have placed a copy here: http://tonysidaway.schtuff.com/curl_egg You must click on the question mark icon to initiate the download. Install in the usual way, for instance on Ubuntu: $ sudo chicken setup curl It can also be obtained from the egg repository via subversion. $ svn co https://galinha.ucpel.tche.br/svn/chicken-eggs/curl $ cd curl/trunk $ make $ sudo make install tinyclos is required, and you'll need libcurl to build and use this. a simple demonstration: $ csi
(use curl) (define c (curl 'easy)) (curl-set-option! c 'url "http://www.example.com";) (curl-perform c)
This example code writes content from the specified URL to (current-output-port). The content can be captured in a Scheme string by using with-output-to-string.
