Total file length

Hi!

I'm new to Curl so maybe this is a stupid question.

I'm working on an application and I'm thinking of using libcurl for the
downloading of certain files.
How can I find out the files total length (when starting to download,
i.e. after the first response) using the easy interface without having
to use a progress function? I don't want to parse any headers and I saw
that this information was sent as an argument to the progress function.
I use a write function of my own and I wouldn't need to use the progress
function if it wheren't for that feature.

Any ideas appreciated!

//Johan
