I did the following in Visual Studio 6:

- Make a new win32 console application called cURL.
- Unzip the cURL files to this folder.
- Add all "curl/src" to the project using "Project-AddToProject-Files".
- Add "curl/include" using "Tools-Options-Directories".
- Add "curl/lib" using "Tools-Options-Directories".
- Add "curl/lib/debug" using "Tools-Options-Directories".

I tried to compile and get:

--------------------Configuration: cURL - Win32 Debug--------------------
Linking...
main.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__curl_slist_free_all
main.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__curl_formfree
main.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__curl_easy_cleanup
.
.
.
Debug/cURL.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 30 unresolved externals
Error executing link.exe.
cURL.exe - 38 error(s), 0 warning(s)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

I tried to compile the lib\curllib.dsw project but it keeps asking for a
path to an exe file. Not sure what file it is asking for.
