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...

# NAME
|
|
|
|
CURLOPT_TRANSFER_ENCODING - ask for HTTP Transfer Encoding
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
~~~c
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_TRANSFER_ENCODING,
|
|
long enable);
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Pass a long set to 1L to *enable* or 0 to disable.
|
|
|
|
Adds a request for compressed Transfer Encoding in the outgoing HTTP
|
|
request. If the server supports this and so desires, it can respond with the
|
|
HTTP response sent using a compressed Transfer-Encoding that is automatically
|
|
uncompressed by libcurl on reception.
|
|
|
|
Transfer-Encoding differs slightly from the Content-Encoding you ask for with
|
|
CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING(3) in that a Transfer-Encoding is strictly meant
|
|
to be for the transfer and thus MUST be decoded before the data arrives in the
|
|
client. Traditionally, Transfer-Encoding has been much less used and supported
|
|
by both HTTP clients and HTTP servers.
