Has anyone been able to complete the final extra credit for building the Ribbit app? The parse.com file deletion one

Below is the extra credit description. I could not figure out how to get this done. I tried but failed :(

Has anyone had more luck?

Extra Credit - Automatic File Deletion As mentioned in "Deleting Partial Data for One Recipient", the Parse Android API does not currently contain a way to delete a file from within the app. It is possible, however, using the Parse REST API. Using an AsyncTask like in the Blog Reader project, construct a DELETE request to the REST API and delete a file at the same time we delete a message (once it's been viewed by the last recipient).

I am also interested in this question. Please let me know if you have any success with that. Maybe Ben Jakuben will give us a little tip? ;)

I don't quite understand how I would implement the curl code explained in the REST API.
