Excellent suggestion, Daniel. Thank you. Now the command line version of
perl and the getinmemory.c example provide exactly the same output (namely a
web page). To achieve this, I inserted:
curl_easy_setopt(curl_handle, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible;
MSIE 5.01; Windows NT 5.0)\0");

into the main function with the other curl_easy_setopts.

It works a treat! Wonderful! Thanks again.
Do you think that putting in a comment into the distributed getinmemory.c file
suggesting a useragent if command line curl and libcurl give different results
is overkill?

Regards
Mark
