- 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

# `--proxy-user`
|
|
|
|
Specify the user name and password to use for proxy authentication.
|
|
|
|
If you use a Windows SSPI-enabled curl binary and do either Negotiate or NTLM
|
|
authentication then you can tell curl to select the user name and password
|
|
from your environment by specifying a single colon with this option: "-U :".
|
|
|
|
On systems where it works, curl hides the given option argument from process
|
|
listings. This is not enough to protect credentials from possibly getting seen
|
|
by other users on the same system as they still are visible for a moment
|
|
before cleared. Such sensitive data should be retrieved from a file instead or
|
|
similar and never used in clear text in a command line.
