2013-07-14src/tool: allow timeouts to accept decimal valuesDave Reisner
Implement wrappers around strtod to convert the user argument to a double with sane error checking. Use this to allow --max-time and --connect-timeout to accept decimal values instead of strictly integers. The manpage is updated to make mention of this feature and, additionally, forewarn that the actual timeout of the operation can vary in its precision (particularly as the value increases in its decimal precision).

2013-04-27darwinssl: add TLS crypto authenticationNick Zitzmann
Users using the Secure Transport (darwinssl) back-end can now use a certificate and private key to authenticate with a site using TLS. Because Apple's security system is based around the keychain and does not have any non-public function to create a SecIdentityRef data structure from data loaded outside of the Keychain, the certificate and private key have to be loaded into the Keychain first (using the certtool command line tool or the Security framework's C API) before we can find it and use it.

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.
