.SH NAME
curl_easy_setopt - set options for a curl easy handle
.SH SYNOPSIS
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
CURLMcode type, general libcurl multi interface error code.
+If you receive \fICURLM_CALL_MULTI_PERFORM\fP, this basicly means that you
+should call \fIcurl_multi_perform\fP again, before you select() on more
+actions. You don't have to do it immediately, but the return code means that
+libcurl may have more data available to return or that there may be more data
+to send off before it is "satisfied".
+
NOTE that this only returns errors etc regarding the whole multi stack. There
might still have occurred problems on invidual transfers even when this
function returns OK.
A little note here about the return codes from the multi functions, and
especially the \fIcurl_multi_perform\fP: if you receive
\fICURLM_CALL_MULTI_PERFORM\fP, this basicly means that you should call
-\fIcurlm_call_multi_perform\fP again, before you select() on more actions. You
-don't have to do it immediately, but the return code means that libcurl may
-have more data available to return or that there may be more data to send off
+\fIcurl_multi_perform\fP again, before you select() on more actions. You don't
+have to do it immediately, but the return code means that libcurl may have
+more data available to return or that there may be more data to send off
before it is "satisfied".
\fIcurl_multi_perform\fP stores the number of still running transfers in one
