<dd><p>Download a remote file specified by its <var>url</var> and return its content
in string <var>s</var>.
</p>
<p>For example:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">s = urlread (&quot;ftp://ftp.octave.org/pub/README&quot;);
</pre></div>

<p>The variable <var>success</var> is 1 if the download was successful,
otherwise it is 0 in which case <var>message</var> contains an error
message.
</p>
<p>If no output argument is specified and an error occurs, then the error is
signaled through Octave&rsquo;s error handling mechanism.
</p>
<p>This function uses libcurl.  Curl supports, among others, the HTTP, FTP, and
FILE protocols.  Username and password may be specified in the URL.  For
example:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">s = urlread (&quot;http://user:password@example.com/file.txt&quot;);
</pre></div>

<p>GET and POST requests can be specified by <var>method</var> and <var>param</var>.
The parameter <var>method</var> is either &lsquo;<samp>get</samp>&rsquo; or &lsquo;<samp>post</samp>&rsquo; and
<var>param</var> is a cell array of parameter and value pairs.
For example:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">s = urlread (&quot;http://www.google.com/search&quot;, &quot;get&quot;,
            {&quot;query&quot;, &quot;octave&quot;});

<dd><p>Download a remote file specified by its <var>url</var> and save it as

<p>The full path of the downloaded file is returned in <var>f</var>.
