Yes, that's an excellent and very simple example. It can be modified
to replace the fetching of the curl page (where you specify the URL
with CURLOPT_URL) using argv[1], so the program runs like:

getinmemory.exe http://www.whatever.com/page.html

and further modified to ask the user if they want to display the page
on the console window and/or write it out to a file after calling
curl_easy_perform.

That would be a good starting point for your own program to get a web
page and store it in a string for whatever purpose.
