How to install curl on FreeBSD using pkg command

To install the curl command on FreeBSD using the pkg package manager, you can use the following steps:

  1. Update the package manager index:
    pkg update
  2. Install curl:
    pkg install curl

You can verify the installation by running the curl --version command, which should display the version of curl that you have installed.

The curl command is a widely used utility for transferring data over the network. It supports various protocols, such as HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and SFTP, and it can be used to download files, send and receive data, and perform various other network-related tasks.

Note: These steps assume that you are using the pkg package manager on FreeBSD. If you are using a different package manager or a different version of FreeBSD, you may need to use different commands to install curl.
