Also you are obviously not looking hard enough if you can't find any documentation for cURL. It's quite simple so of course the documentation span wouldn't be vast.

Just follow tutorials or read some source code then create a wrapper for it to simplify the structure you need when interacting with the web. I think you could put more effort into these things than you're currently putting.

And Python has literally tons of networking/web (WWW) libraries. That tells me you either really aren't trying or you just up and quit easily. There's urllib/urllib2/requests and more. There's even a curl binding for Python. LG has distributed more than a handful of HTTP wrappers in the past (for example, in Artificial's Gaia login it includes a small and minimalist wrapper for urllib/2).

As for Python GUI builders, they exist. Given they're less convenient than say Microsoft's integrated WYSIWYG editor in languages like C# and Visual Basic. I use Boa Constructor for wxPython. Boa Constructor home

There's plenty more where that came from. Also, AutoIt's GUI designer is named Koda and it was made in Delphi.

But Python and similar languages weren't really designed with those things in mind due to the fact that Python is general purpose and not a RAD programming language like VB or Delphi.
Well I'm afraid I don't really understand it. If you could explain it a bit that would be cool.

And I never said that curl was the only Python thing to interact with the net, it was just the only one I knew of.

But anyway, I think I'm going to start learning Python again. Which one should I learn? 2.7 or like 3.0 or whatever? I think before I had been learning 3.0 or whatever the 3 one is, but I had always heard that 2.7 was better or something like that.

Also, what do you do when you want to program but don't know what to program? Because I really feel like programming right now, but can't think of anything useful to make, and I'm sick of making programs that just say either 1 or 0 if they fail or complete correctly, and they just use whatever things I just learned to either print a 1 or 0. Like, one of my most recent ones was when I was testing if, else, and else if statements to see if I could do this one thing with them. It would return a 1 if it succeeded, or a 0, 0-1, 0-2, etc, to see what section it failed at. You could say it was like a built-in thing to show what spot the program failed at. Compared to newer programs it was probably old as all hell though.
