Im having serious trouble installing a library named curl. ive searched MANY tutorials, but they go over my head, and skip sections of the instructions. Ive never installed a library before, but i need a feature in my script to be able to go online and download a txt file, and someone told me i should use curl.
can anyone help me out, or show me to a good tutorial, or give me a way to download a txt file off a website without a library?
many thanks. (btw, im using dev-cpp)
