form.d: fix two minor typos

2020-01-23T08:28:05+00:00

Closes #4843

curl.1: Fix cmdline-opts reference errors.

2018-05-28T13:02:03+00:00

--data, --form, and --ntlm were declared to be mutually exclusive with
non-existing options. --data and --form referred to --upload (which is
short for --upload-file and therefore did work, so this one was merely
a bit confusing), --ntlm referred to --negotiated instead of --negotiate.

Closes #2612

form.d: rephrased somewhat, added two example command lines

2018-02-22T07:28:05+00:00

cli tool: in -F option arg, comma is a delimiter for files only

2017-10-29T15:23:06+00:00

Also upgrade test 1133 to cover this case and clarify man page about
form data quoting.

cli tool: reimplement stdin buffering in -F option.

2017-10-12T13:25:59+00:00

If stdin is not a regular file, its content is memory-buffered to enable
a possible data "rewind".
In all cases, stdin data size is determined before real use to avoid
having an unknown part's size.

--libcurl generated code is left as an unbuffered stdin fread/fseek callback
part with unknown data size.

Buffering is not supported in deprecated curl_formadd() API.

docs: clarify form/mime usage of non-regular data files.

2017-10-08T15:15:23+00:00

mime: implement encoders.

2017-09-05T16:55:51+00:00

curl_mime_encoder() is operational and documented.
curl tool -F option is extended with ";encoder=".
curl tool --libcurl option generates calls to curl_mime_encoder().
New encoder tests 648 & 649.
Test 1404 extended with an encoder specification.

mime: use in curl cli tool instead of form API.

2017-09-02T17:17:33+00:00

Extended -F option syntax to support multipart mail messages.
-F keyword headers= added to include custom headers in parts.
Documentation upgraded.

cmdline-docs: more options converted over
