This one looks like it might be invented by the PHP bindings author.
I have no idea what it does.

See the curl_easy_setopt page (mentioned above) and also the examples here:

http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/example.html

and the tutorial here:

http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/libcurl-tutorial.html

Note also that if you know how to do what you want with the "curl"
command line utility, you can do this:

curl --your --options --here http://www.example.com/ --libcurl example.c

and example.c will be generated based on the options you choose.
