Description: PycURL -- A Python Interface To The cURL library
        ================================================
        
        PycURL is a Python interface to `libcurl`_, the multiprotocol file
        transfer library. Similarly to the urllib_ Python module,
        PycURL can be used to fetch objects identified by a URL from a Python program.
        Beyond simple fetches however PycURL exposes most of the functionality of
        libcurl, including:
        
        - Speed - libcurl is very fast and PycURL, being a thin wrapper above
          libcurl, is very fast as well. PycURL `was benchmarked`_ to be several
          times faster than requests_.
        - Features including multiple protocol support, SSL, authentication and
          proxy options. PycURL supports most of libcurl's callbacks.
        - Multi_ and share_ interfaces.
        - Sockets used for network operations, permitting integration of PycURL
          into the application's I/O loop (e.g., using Tornado_).
