- 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

--url
Specify a URL to fetch. This option is mostly handy when you want to specify URL(s) in a config file.
If the given URL is missing a scheme name (such as "http://" or "ftp://" etc) then curl makes a guess based on the host. If the outermost subdomain name matches DICT, FTP, IMAP, LDAP, POP3 or SMTP then that protocol is used, otherwise HTTP is used. Guessing can be avoided by providing a full URL including the scheme, or disabled by setting a default protocol (added in 7.45.0), see --proto-default for details.
To control where this URL is written, use the --output or the --remote-name options.
WARNING: On Windows, particular file:// accesses can be converted to network accesses by the operating system. Beware!
