i tried the trick, but i got what follows:

[dom_at_grullo ~]$ curl --version
curl 7.2 (i586-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl 7.2.1 (SSL 0.9.4)

*** exited: 2
[dom_at_grullo ~]$ curl file://home/dom/incoming_done.html
curl: (6) Couldn't resolv host ''

*** exited: 6
[dom_at_grullo ~]$

my shell shows return code when != 0, so this is returning 6.

btw, note that curl says to be version 7.2, even if gets out from the
7.2.1 source tree. is it correct?

cheers
