+.TH curl_printf 3 "20 April 2001" "libcurl 7.7.2" "libcurl Manual"
+.SH NAME
+curl_maprintf, curl_mfprintf, curl_mprintf, curl_msnprintf, curl_msprintf
+curl_mvaprintf, curl_mvfprintf, curl_mvprintf, curl_mvsnprintf,
+curl_mvsprintf - formatted output conversion
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B #include <curl/mprintf.h>
+.sp
+.BI "int curl_mprintf(const char *" format ", ...);"
+.br
+.BI "int curl_mfprintf(FILE *" fd ", const char *" format ", ...);"
+.br
+.BI "int curl_msprintf(char *" buffer ", const char *" format ", ...);"
+.br
+.BI "int curl_msnprintf(char *" buffer ", size_t " maxlength ", const char *" format ", ...);"
+.br
+.BI "int curl_mvprintf(const char *" format ", va_list " args ");"
+.br
+.BI "int curl_mvfprintf(FILE *" fd ", const char *" format ", va_list " args ");"
+.br
+.BI "int curl_mvsprintf(char *" buffer ", const char *" format ", va_list " args ");"

+.br
+.BI "char *curl_maprintf(const char *" format ", ...);"
+.br
+.BI "char *curl_mvaprintf(const char *" format ", va_list " args ");"
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+These are all functions that produces output according to a format string and
+given arguments. These are mostly clones of the well-known C-style functions
+and there will be no detailed explanation of all available formatting rules
+and usage here.
+
+See this table for notable exceptions.
+.RS
+.TP
+.B curl_mprintf()
+Normal printf() clone.
+.TP
+.B curl_mfprintf()
+Normal fprinf() clone.
+.TP
+.B curl_msprintf()
+Normal sprintf() clone.
+.TP
+.B curl_msnprintf()
+snprintf() clone. Many systems don't have this. It is just like \fBsprintf\fP
+but with an extra argument after the buffer that specifies the length of the
+target buffer.
+.TP
+.B curl_mvprintf()
+Normal vprintf() clone.
+.TP
+.B curl_mvfprintf()
+Normal vfprintf() clone.
+.TP
+.B curl_mvsprintf()
+Normal vsprintf() clone.
+.TP
+.B curl_mvsnprintf()
+vsnprintf() clone. Many systems don't have this. It is just like
+\fBvsprintf\fP but with an extra argument after the buffer that specifies the
+length of the target buffer.
+.TP
+.B curl_maprintf()
+Like printf() but returns the output string as a malloc()ed string. The
+returned string must be free()ed by the receiver.
+.TP
+.B curl_mvaprintf()
+Like curl_maprintf() but takes a va_list pointer argument instead of a
+variable amount of arguments.
+.RE
+
+To easily use all these cloned functions instead of the normal ones, #define
+_MPRINTF_REPLACE before you include the <curl/mprintf.h> file. Then all the
+normal names like printf, fprintf, sprintf etc will use the curl-functions
+instead.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+The \fBcurl_maprintf\fP and \fBcurl_mvaprintf\fP functions return a pointer to
+a newly allocated string, or NULL it it failed.
+
+All other functions return the number of character they actually outputed.

+.TH curl_strequal 3 "20 April 2001" "libcurl 7.7.2" "libcurl Manual"
+.SH NAME
+curl_strequal, curl_strnequal - case insensitive string comparisons
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B #include <curl/curl.h>
+.sp
+.BI "int curl_strequal(char *" str1 ", char *" str2 ");"
+.sp
+.BI "int curl_strenqual(char *" str1 ", char *" str2 ", size_t " len ");"
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.B curl_strequal()
+function compares the two strings \fIstr1\fP and \fIstr2\fP, ignoring the case
+of the characters. It returns a non-zero (TRUE) integer if the strings are
+identical.
+.sp
+The \fBcurl_strnequal()\fP function is similar, except it only compares the
+first \fIlen\fP characters of \fIstr1\fP.
+.sp
+These functions are provided by libcurl to enable applications to compare
+strings in a truly portable manner. There are no standard portable case
+insensitive string comparison functions. These two works on all platforms.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+A pointer to a zero terminated string.
+.SH "SEE ALSO"
+.BR strcmp "(3), " strcasecmp "(3)"
