What good tutorials exist for learning pycURL? [closed]

Question

I'm planning on building my own FTP client in Python for learning purposes. I'm planning on using PycURL but the documentation seems to be lacking.

What good tutorials are there for learning pycURL?

Answer 1

In the time since this question was asked, a terrific PycURL tutorial was written. It covers everything from GET and POST requests to cookies and proxies.

Answer 2

The docs here are fine, IMHO, if you already know the C library that's getting wrapped, as documented here. I don't know how feasible it is to learn pycurl without learning libcurl previously (or concurrently).
