-## This module contains simple high-level procedures for dealing with the
-## web. Use cases: 
-##
-## * requesting URLs
-## * sending and retrieving emails
-## * sending and retrieving files from an FTP server
-##
-## Currently only requesting URLs is implemented. The implementation depends
-## on the libcurl library!
-##
-## **Deprecated since version 0.8.8:** Use the
-## `httpclient <httpclient.html>`_ module instead.
