findHTTPHeaderEncoding

This function is currently made available so it can be called
 from C code to find the charset from the HTTP header in the
 response from an HTTP server. It maps this charset value
 to one of the known R encodings (UTF-8 or LATIN1)
 or returns the native encoding.
This will most likely be removed in the future.

programming

A wrapper for 'libcurl' <https://curl.se/libcurl/>
Provides functions to allow one to compose general HTTP requests
and provides convenient functions to fetch URIs, get & post
forms, etc. and process the results returned by the Web server.
This provides a great deal of control over the HTTP/FTP/...
connection and the form of the request while providing a
higher-level interface than is available just using R socket
connections. Additionally, the underlying implementation is
robust and extensive, supporting FTP/FTPS/TFTP (uploads and
downloads), SSL/HTTPS, telnet, dict, ldap, and also supports
cookies, redirects, authentication, etc.
