Option cleanups: --get is not upload --form* are post - added several options into ldap, smtp, imap and pop3 - shortened the category descriptions in the list category curl fixes: --create-dirs removed from 'curl' --ftp-create-dirs removed from 'curl' --netrc moved to 'auth' from 'curl' --netrc-file moved to 'auth' from 'curl' --netrc-optional moved to 'auth' from 'curl' --no-buffer moved to 'output' from 'curl' --no-clobber removed from 'curl' --output removed from 'curl' --output-dir removed from 'curl' --remove-on-error removed from 'curl' Add a "global" category: - Made all "global" options set this category Add a "deprecated" category: - Moved the deprecated options to it (maybe they should not be in any category long term) Add a 'timeout' category - Put a number of appropriate options in it Add an 'ldap' category - Put the LDAP related option in there Remove categories "ECH" and "ipfs" - They should not be categories. Had only one single option each. Remove category "misc" - It should not be a category as it is impossible to know when to browse it. --use-ascii moved to ftp and output --xattr moved to output --service-name moved to auth Managen fixes: - errors if an option is given a category name that is not already setup for in code - verifies that options set `scope: global` also is put in category `global´ Closes #14101

# `--form-string`
|
|
|
|
Similar to --form except that the value string for the named parameter is used
|
|
literally. Leading @ and \< characters, and the `;type=` string in the value
|
|
have no special meaning. Use this in preference to --form if there is any
|
|
possibility that the string value may accidentally trigger the @ or \<
|
|
features of --form.
