2012-04-01curl tool: add filename_effective token for --write-outDave Reisner
By modifying the parameter list for ourWriteOut() and passing the OutStruct that collects data in tool_operate, we get access to the remote name that we're writing to. Shell scripters should find this useful when used in conjuntion with the --remote-header-name option.
2012-03-23docs: clarify -z/--time-cond with filename (mention mtime)Rodrigo Silva (MestreLion)
Original wording could lead users in thinking it tries to somehow parse the filename for a date expression (like news_2012_03_05.html). It never mentions that it actually reads the mtime of the file in filesystem.
2012-02-23curl.1: updated --libcurlDaniel Stenberg

2012-02-09--ssl-allow-beast addedDaniel Stenberg
This new option tells curl to not work around a security flaw in the SSL3 and TLS1.0 protocols. It uses the new libcurl option CURLOPT_SSL_OPTIONS with the CURLSSLOPT_ALLOW_BEAST bit set.
2012-02-09curl: use new library-side TCP_KEEPALIVE optionsDave Reisner
Use the new library CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPALIVE rather than disabling this via the sockopt callback. If --keepalive-time is used, apply the value to CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPIDLE and CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPINTVL.
2012-01-19curl.1: improve --stderr wordingDaniel Stenberg
As is pointed out in this bug report, there can indeed be situation where --stderr has a point even when the "real" stderr can be redirected. Remove the superfluous and wrong comment. bug: http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=3476020

2011-10-30doc/curl.1: fix sentence with ending for -# optionDave Reisner
Try to be a little more descriptive about the effect of this flag, rather than parroting what was said in the paragraph just above.

2010-01-02- Make curl support --ssl and --ssl-reqd instead of the previous FTP-specificDaniel Stenberg
versions --ftp-ssl and --ftp-ssl-reqd as these options are now used to control SSL/TLS for IMAP, POP3 and SMTP as well in addition to FTP. The old option names are still working but the new ones are the prefered ones (listed and documented).
2010-01-01- Ingmar Runge enhanced libcurl's FTP engine to support the PRET command. ThisDaniel Stenberg
command is a special "hack" used by the drftpd server, but even though it is a custom extension I've deemed it fine to add to libcurl since this server seems to survive and people keep using it and want libcurl to support it. The new libcurl option is named CURLOPT_FTP_USE_PRET, and it is also usable from the curl tool with --ftp-pret. Using this option on a server that doesn't support this command will make libcurl fail.
