- Turn docs/INSTALL.cmake into a proper markdown file,
docs/INSTALL-CMAKE.md
- Move things around to divide the description into configuration,
building and installing sections
- Mention the more modern cmake options to configure, build and install,
but also retain the older variants as fallbacks
Closes#12772
The previous command line to generate the tool_listhelp.c source file
broke with 2494b8dd51.
Make 'make listhelp' invoked in src/ generate it. Also update the
comment in the file to mention the right procedure.
Closes#12786
Rework CMake options for building/using curl tool and libcurl manuals.
- rename `ENABLE_MANUAL` to `ENABLE_CURL_MANUAL`, meaning:
to build man page and built-in manual for curl tool.
- rename `BUILD_DOCS` to `BUILD_LIBCURL_DOCS`, meaning:
to build man pages for libcurl.
- `BUILD_LIBCURL_DOCS` now works without having to enable
`ENABLE_CURL_MANUAL` too.
- drop support for existing CMake-level `USE_MANUAL` option to avoid
confusion. (It used to work with the effect of current
`ENABLE_CURL_MANUAL`, but only by accident.)

This means words, phrases or things we have decided not to use - words that
are spelled right according to the dictionary but we want to avoid. In the
name of consistency and better documentation.
Closes#12764
- cmake: enable `BUILD_DOCS` by default (this controls converting and
installing `.3` files from `.md` sources)
- cmake: speed up generating `.3` files by using a single command per
directory, instead of a single command per file. This reduces external
commands by about a thousand. (There remains some CMake logic kicking
in resulting in 500 -one per file- external `-E touch_nocreate` calls.)
- cd2nroff: add ability to process multiple input files.
- cd2nroff: add `-k` option to use the source filename to form the
output filename. (instead of the default in-file `Title:` line.)

- switch all invidual files documenting command line options into .md,
as the documentation is now markdown-looking.
- made the parser treat 4-space indents as quotes
- switch to building the curl.1 manpage using the "mainpage.idx" file,
which lists the files to include to generate it, instead of using the
previous page-footer/headers. Also, those files are now also .md
ones, using the same format. I gave them underscore prefixes to make
them sort separately:
_NAME.md, _SYNOPSIS.md, _DESCRIPTION.md, _URL.md, _GLOBBING.md,
_VARIABLES.md, _OUTPUT.md, _PROTOCOLS.md, _PROGRESS.md, _VERSION.md,
_OPTIONS.md, _FILES.md, _ENVIRONMENT.md, _PROXYPREFIX.md,
_EXITCODES.md, _BUGS.md, _AUTHORS.md, _WWW.md, _SEEALSO.md
- updated test cases accordingly
Closes#12751
curldown is this new file format for libcurl man pages. It is markdown
inspired with differences:
- Each file has a set of leading headers with meta-data
- Supports a small subset of markdown
- Uses .md file extensions for editors/IDE/GitHub to treat them nicely
- Generates man pages very similar to the previous ones
- Generates man pages that still convert nicely to HTML on the website
- Detects and highlights mentions of curl symbols automatically (when
their man page section is specified)
tools:
- cd2nroff: converts from curldown to nroff man page
- nroff2cd: convert an (old) nroff man page to curldown
- cdall: convert many nroff pages to curldown versions
- cd2cd: verifies and updates a curldown to latest curldown
This setup generates .3 versions of all the curldown versions at build time.
CI:
Since the documentation is now technically markdown in the eyes of many
things, the CI runs many more tests and checks on this documentation,
including proselint, link checkers and tests that make sure we capitalize the
first letter after a period...
Closes#12730
- HTTP/3 for curl using OpenSSL's own QUIC stack together
with nghttp3
- configure with `--with-openssl-quic` to enable curl to
build this. This requires the nghttp3 library
- implementation with the following restrictions:
* macOS has to use an unconnected UDP socket due to an
issue in OpenSSL's datagram implementation
See https://github.com/openssl/openssl/issues/23251
This makes connections to non-reponsive servers hang.
* GET requests will send the indicator that they have
no body in a separate QUIC packet. This may result
in processing delays or Transfer-Encodings on proxied
requests
* uploads that encounter blocks will use 100% cpu as
detection of these flow control issue is not working
(we have not figured out to pry that from OpenSSL).
Closes#12734
- remove use of .BI for code snippet
- stop using .br, just do a blank line
- remove use of .PP
- remove use for .sp
- remove backslash in .IP
- use .IP instead of .TP
Closes#12731
... since this funtion has not supported null pointer fd_set arguments since
at least 2006. (That's when I stopped my git blame journey)
Fixes#12691

Closes#12692
Previously it would match only on a sequence of non-space, which made it
miss to highlight for example "public suffix list".
Updated the recent cookie.d edit from 5da57193b7 to use bold instead
of italics.
