When the easy handle is setup for a transfer, then instead of using
\fIcurl_easy_perform(3)\fP (as when using the easy interface for transfers),
you should instead add the easy handle to the multi handle using
\fIcurl_easy_add_handle(3)\fP. The multi handle is sometimes referred to as a
\fIcurl_multi_add_handle(3)\fP. The multi handle is sometimes referred to as a
\'multi stack\' because of the fact that it may hold a large amount of easy
handles.
Should you change your mind, the easy handle is again removed from the multi
stack using \fIcurl_multi_remove_handle(3)\fP. Once removed from the multi
handle, you can again use other easy interface functions like
\fIcurl_easy_perform\fP on the handle or whatever you think is necessary.

Adding the easy handle to the multi handle does not start the transfer.

A little note here about the return codes from the multi functions, and
especially the \fIcurl_multi_perform(3)\fP: if you receive

\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
