+
+# SYNOPSIS

+    CURLcode res;
+    /* set options */
+    /* Perform the entire transfer */
+    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
+    /* Check for errors */
+    if(res != CURLE_OK)
+      fprintf(stderr, "curl_easy_perform() failed: %s\n",
+              curl_easy_strerror(res));
+  }
+}
+~~~
+
