NAME

CURLOPT_NOPROGRESS - switch off the progress meter

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_NOPROGRESS, long onoff);

DESCRIPTION

If onoff is to 1, it tells the library to shut off the progress meter completely for requests done with this handle. It also prevents the CURLOPT_XFERINFOFUNCTION(3) or CURLOPT_PROGRESSFUNCTION(3) from getting called.

DEFAULT

1, meaning it normally runs without a progress meter.
