 .SH DESCRIPTION
 This function must be the first function to call, and it returns a CURL easy
-handle that you must use as input to other functions in the easy
-interface. This call \fBMUST\fP have a corresponding call to
+handle that you must use as input to other easy-functions. curl_easy_init
+initializes curl and this call \fBMUST\fP have a corresponding call to
 \fIcurl_easy_cleanup(3)\fP when the operation is complete.
 
-If you did not already call \fIcurl_global_init(3)\fP, \fIcurl_easy_init(3)\fP
-does it automatically.  This may be lethal in multi-threaded cases, since
-\fIcurl_global_init(3)\fP is not thread-safe, and it may result in resource
-problems because there is no corresponding cleanup.

 other curl functions.
