why i havent been posting so frequently...
to start, i will continue to be an active member of this community and still love computers and unix based operating systems.
ive been busy recently with a pretty big project, not involving unix
one of my other hobbies is automobiles. i have a 1986.5 toyota supra, now if anyone here has knowledge of mkiii's (the generation designation for the toyota supra model from 1986.5 to 1992) they would know that the 1986.5 did NOT come with the 7mgte engine. (that is an inline 6, three liter turbo charged engine.) instead it came with the 7mge (non turbo). turbo charging is where its at. the level of materials we have today (since the 80s) are advanced enough to warrant the use of turbo chargers. they have been proven effective methods of creating more power time and time again, for many years now.
a few months ago i bought a used 7mgte engine to transfer into my car.
if it were only that simple, not only does the engine have to be replaced, but many of the electronics that control the engine as well.
well long story short, after bringing the head from the engine in to get a valve job, i have it back and am just finishing putting the motor back together. ihave began the process of transplanting the engine.
leaving me with no car and no transportation to work !! (my bike has a flat tire )
anyway, i have been taking pictures of much of the process that i will be putting up on my server for people from the forums dealing with mkiiis to see.
if anyone here is interested, id be happy to provide a link to the pictures, when they go up when i am finished with the swap.
wish me luck!

curl_getenv
curl_getenv(3) libcurl Manual curl_getenv(3) NAME
curl_getenv - return value for environment name SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h> char *curl_getenv(const char *name); DESCRIPTION
curl_getenv() is a portable wrapper for the getenv() function, meant to emulate its behaviour and provide an identical interface for all operating systems libcurl builds on (including win32). AVAILABILITY
This function will be removed from the public libcurl API in a near future. It will instead be made "available" by source code access only, and then as curlx_getenv(). RETURN VALUE
If successful, curl_getenv() returns a pointer to the value of the specified environment. The memory it refers to is malloc()ed so the application must free() this when the data is no longer needed. When curl_getenv(3) fails to find the specified name, it returns a null pointer. NOTE
Under unix operating systems, there isn't any point in returning an allocated memory, although other systems won't work properly if this isn't done. The unix implementation thus has to suffer slightly from the drawbacks of other systems. SEE ALSO
