CURL

[Myles Braithwaite]

curl man page[1] is actually really good. But if you don't know basic
HTTP protocol it is really complicated. Take a look at the HTTP
Protocol RFC 2616[2] which provides all the information you will ever
need.

A good place to learn about cookie's is the Wikipedia page[3].

Also if you don't like the command line check out hurl[4] and it's source[5].

I provide a basic guide to interfacing curl with Apache CouchDB in my
slides from Ontario Linux Fest[6].

Sorry I couldn't provide anymore information. The HTTP protocol is
really complex and learning it will require reading a lot of RFCs.
