It's mostly a filler word. I've read through each use of it in the code
base and did minor rephrasings when "simply" carried some meaning. The
overwhelming majority of cases, removing it improved the text
significantly. Inspired by #20793.
Closes#20822
$ curl -h all | grep -- --http
Now:
--http0.9 Allow HTTP/0.9 responses
-0, --http1.0 Use HTTP/1.0
--http1.1 Use HTTP/1.1
--http2 Use HTTP/2
--http2-prior-knowledge Use HTTP/2 without HTTP/1.1 Upgrade
--http3 Use HTTP/3
--http3-only Use HTTP/3 only
Before:
--http0.9 Allow HTTP 0.9 responses
-0, --http1.0 Use HTTP 1.0
--http1.1 Use HTTP 1.1
--http2 Use HTTP/2
--http2-prior-knowledge Use HTTP 2 without HTTP/1.1 Upgrade
--http3 Use HTTP v3
--http3-only Use HTTP v3 only
Closes#16542
Use imperative mood consistently for the first sentence describing an
option.
"Set this" instead "tell curl to set" or "this sets..."
Plus some extra cleanups and rephrasing.
Closes#13106
- 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
