+.TH CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION 3 "17 Jun 2014" "libcurl 7.37.0" "curl_easy_setopt options"
+.SH NAME
+CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION \- follow HTTP 3xx redirects
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+#include <curl/curl.h>
+
+CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, [argument]);
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+A parameter set to 1 tells the library to follow any Location: header that the
+server sends as part of a HTTP header in a 3xx response.
+
+This means that libcurl will re-send the same request on the new location and
+follow new Location: headers all the way until no more such headers are
+returned. \fICURLOPT_MAXREDIRS(3)\fP can be used to limit the number of
+redirects libcurl will follow.
+
+libcurl can limit to what protocols it will automatically follow. The accepted
+protocols are set with \fICURLOPT_REDIR_PROTOCOLS(3)\fP and it excludes the
+FILE protocol by default.
+.SH DEFAULT
+0, disabled
+.SH PROTOCOLS
+HTTP
+.SH EXAMPLE
+TODO
+.SH AVAILABILITY
+Along with HTTP
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+Returns CURLE_OK if HTTP is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
