Subject: ocamlnet ( Http_client and other stuff )

Hi,
after using Nethtml for HTNML-parsing (nice!) and Pcre (nice!)
I now want to use other modules from the ocamlnet stuff.
At the moment I want just write a simple webfile retriever.
So, some http-get stuff for webpages.
But later I may need more advanced features.
Some years ago I tried some of the ocamlnet stuff,
but have forgotten the details.
As far as I can remember, there was an OO-based lib, which makes web
access very easy, but for more specialized stuff, such as cookies, one
should use the http_client library, because that OO-stuff did only
provide simple protocoll stuff.
I'm not sure if the other OO-stuff was enhanced since then.
Is there an overview on the different libs, with recommendations,
which library is useful for what task?
Some examples also would be fine.
BTW: there is Pcre as well as Netstring_pcre. When to use which?
Should I always prefer Netstring_pcre for web stuff?
Ciao,
Oliver
