Enable libcurl’s compression support #28

Closed JNRowe closed 5 years ago

JNRowe commented 5 years ago

Firstly, thanks for castget. It is great!

Less importantly, this commit enables support for compression. Many of the feeds I subscribe to are very large, and this simple change drops network transfers by around 80%. Obviously your mileage will vary, but it should help in most situations.

Thanks,

James

Many thanks and happy to hear you like castget!

Merged with an added changelog entry and note on the minimum libcurl version required.
