On Linux :
It's quite easy to compile the C source with GCC :
$ make
cc -W -Wall -pedantic -g -c -o trurl.o trurl.c
cc trurl.o -lcurl -o trurl
Development files of libcurl (e.g. libcurl4-openssl-dev or
libcurl4-gnutls-dev) are needed for compilation. Requires libcurl version
7.62.0 or newer (the first libcurl to ship the URL parsing API).
trurl also uses CURLUPART_ZONEID added in libcurl 7.81.0 and
curl_url_strerror() added in libcurl 7.80.0
It would certainly be possible to make trurl work with older libcurl versions if someone wanted to.
