+.TH curl_easy_init 3 "4 March 2002" "libcurl 7.8.1" "libcurl Manual"
+.SH NAME
+curl_easy_init - Start a libcurl easy session
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B #include <curl/curl.h>
+
+.BI "CURL *curl_easy_init( );"
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+This function must be the first function to call, and it returns a CURL easy
+handle that you must use as input to other functions in the easy
+interface. This call \fBMUST\fP have a corresponding call to
+\fIcurl_easy_cleanup(3)\fP when the operation is complete.
+
+If you did not already call \fIcurl_global_init(3)\fP, \fIcurl_easy_init(3)\fP
+does it automatically.  This may be lethal in multi-threaded cases, since
+\fIcurl_global_init(3)\fP is not thread-safe, and it may result in resource
+problems because there is no corresponding cleanup.
+
+You are strongly advised to not allow this automatic behaviour, by calling
+\fIcurl_global_init(3)\fP yourself properly.  See the description in
+\fBlibcurl\fP(3) of global environment requirements for details of how to use
+this function.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+If this function returns NULL, something went wrong and you cannot use the
+other curl functions.
+.SH EXAMPLE
+.nf
+CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
+if(curl) {
+  CURLcode res;
+  curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://example.com");
+  res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
+  curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
+}
+.fi
