Hi Taco,

Actually you don't really need to set the WRITEFUNCTION callback of
libcurl.  I only set it to the "discard" function which simply return
the number of bytes it got, such that libcurl doesn't print the header
information to stdout.  You could also plug a different function in
there if you wanted to process the headers.  I will soon post an
annotated version of the code with more proper error-checking on the list.

Cheers, Henri
