- 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

# `--fail`

|
Fail fast with no output at all on server errors. This is useful to enable
|
|
scripts and users to better deal with failed attempts. In normal cases when an
|
|
HTTP server fails to deliver a document, it returns an HTML document stating
|
|
so (which often also describes why and more). This flag prevents curl from
|
|
outputting that and return error 22.
|
|
|
|
This method is not fail-safe and there are occasions where non-successful
|
|
response codes slip through, especially when authentication is involved
|
|
(response codes 401 and 407).
