From 2c93ec5303f0a3d46d10dbcee98e46a0b413a59b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Stenberg Date: Sat, 2 Jan 2010 22:09:31 +0000 Subject: - Make curl support --ssl and --ssl-reqd instead of the previous FTP-specific 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). --- docs/curl.1 | 25 +++++++++++++++---------- 1 file changed, 15 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) (limited to 'docs') diff --git a/docs/curl.1 b/docs/curl.1 index 27f81f276..35b4e6330 100644 --- a/docs/curl.1 +++ b/docs/curl.1 @@ -5,7 +5,7 @@ .\" * | (__| |_| | _ <| |___ .\" * \___|\___/|_| \_\_____| .\" * -.\" * Copyright (C) 1998 - 2009, Daniel Stenberg, , et al. +.\" * Copyright (C) 1998 - 2010, Daniel Stenberg, , et al. .\" * .\" * This software is licensed as described in the file COPYING, which .\" * you should have received as part of this distribution.
