... no need to use an absolute path, that makes the build unncessarily
fail if invoked using a different mount point. managen now takes options
to find the input files.
Update test1478 to provide the dir arguments to managen
Closes#13281
make -C docs/cmdline-opts install depends on all-am, which in turn
depends on $(MANS), unconditionally defined to be $(man_MANS).
As with CLEANFILES, only add curl.1 to man_MANS when BUILD_DOCS is true
so we don't try to build curl.1 unnecessarily.
Closes#13198
Use imperative mood consistently for the first sentence describing an
option.
"Set this" instead "tell curl to set" or "this sets..."
Plus some extra cleanups and rephrasing.
Closes#13106
Since it is no longer needed for building tool_hugehelp.c and all the
docs is available in readable markdown format in the tarball, the peeps
that don't want to build the manpage still do good.
Removing it also fixes the complexity of out-of-tree builds when the
curl.1 exists in the source tree.
All CR and LF bytes should be stripped, as documented, and all other
bytes are inluded in the data. Starting now, it also excludes null bytes
as they would otherwise also cut the data short.

Create ASCII version of manpage without nroff
- build src/tool_hugegelp.c from the ascii manpage
- move the the manpage and the ascii version build to docs/cmdline-opts
- remove all use of nroff from the build process
- should make the build entirely reproducible (by avoiding nroff)
- partly reverts 2620aa9 to build libcurl option man pages one by one
in cmake because the appveyor builds got all crazy until I did
The ASCII version of the manpage
- is built with gen.pl, just like the manpage is
- has a right-justified column making the appearance similar to the previous
version
- uses a 4-space indent per level (instead of the old version's 7)
- does not do hyphenation of words (which nroff does)
History
We first made the curl build use nroff for building the hugehelp file in
December 1998, for curl 5.2.
Closes#13047
The function that replaces occurances of "--longoption" with "-Z,
--longoption" etc with the proper highlight applied, no longer loops
over the options.
Closes#13041
This fixes miscellaneous typos and duplicated words in the docs, lib
and test comments and a few user facing errorstrings.

Returns 1 if the previous transfer used a proxy, otherwise 0. Useful to
for example determine if a `NOPROXY` pattern matched the hostname or
not.
Extended test 970 and 972
- make sure angle brackets are escaped
- remove a lot of superfluous double quotes
- replace several double quotes with backticks
To make nicer-looking markdown.

The previous command line to generate the tool_listhelp.c source file
broke with 2494b8dd51.
Make 'make listhelp' invoked in src/ generate it. Also update the
comment in the file to mention the right procedure.
Closes#12786
- switch all invidual files documenting command line options into .md,
as the documentation is now markdown-looking.
- made the parser treat 4-space indents as quotes
- switch to building the curl.1 manpage using the "mainpage.idx" file,
which lists the files to include to generate it, instead of using the
previous page-footer/headers. Also, those files are now also .md
ones, using the same format. I gave them underscore prefixes to make
them sort separately:
_NAME.md, _SYNOPSIS.md, _DESCRIPTION.md, _URL.md, _GLOBBING.md,
_VARIABLES.md, _OUTPUT.md, _PROTOCOLS.md, _PROGRESS.md, _VERSION.md,
_OPTIONS.md, _FILES.md, _ENVIRONMENT.md, _PROXYPREFIX.md,
_EXITCODES.md, _BUGS.md, _AUTHORS.md, _WWW.md, _SEEALSO.md
- updated test cases accordingly
Closes#12751
Previously it would match only on a sequence of non-space, which made it
miss to highlight for example "public suffix list".
Updated the recent cookie.d edit from 5da57193b7 to use bold instead
of italics.
Closes#12689
Remove use of .TP and some .B. The idea is to reduce nroff syntax as
much as possible and to use it consistently. Ultimately, we should be
able to introduce our own easier-to-use-and-read syntax/formatting and
convert on generation time.
Closes#12535
They were previously sorted based on the file names, which use a .d
extension, making "data" get placed after "data-binary" etc. Making the
sort ignore the extention fixes the ordering.

7.50.0 shipped on Jul 21 2016, over seven years ago. We no longer need
to specify version changes for earlier releases in the generated output.
This ups the limit from the previous 7.30.0 (Apr 12 2013)
This hides roughly 35 "added in" mentions.
Closes#11651
- removed some unnecessary blurb to focus
- moved up the more important URL details
- put "globbing" into its own subtitle and moved down a little
- mention the online man page in the version section
Closes#11638
We remove support for building curl with gskit.
- This is a niche TLS library, only running on some IBM systems
- no regular curl contributors use this backend
- no CI builds use or verify this backend
- gskit, or the curl adaption for it, lacks many modern TLS features
making it an inferior solution
- build breakages in this code take weeks or more to get detected
- fixing gskit code is mostly done "flying blind"
This removal has been advertized in DEPRECATED in Jan 2, 2023 and it has
been mentioned on the curl-library mailing list.
It could be brought back, this is not a ban. Given proper effort and
will, gskit support is welcome back into the curl TLS backend family.
