Based on the standards and guidelines we use for our documentation.

 - host name = > hostname
 - file name => filename
 - user name = username
 - man page => manpage
 - run-time => runtime

 - back-end => backend
 - a HTTP => an HTTP
 - Two spaces after a period => one space after period

# NAME
CURLOPT_PROXY_KEYPASSWD - passphrase for the proxy private key
# SYNOPSIS
~~~c
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXY_KEYPASSWD, char *pwd);
~~~
# DESCRIPTION
This option is for connecting to an HTTPS proxy, not an HTTPS server.
Pass a pointer to a null-terminated string as parameter. It is used as the
password required to use the CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEY(3) private key. You never
need a passphrase to load a certificate but you need one to load your private
key.
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this
option.
# DEFAULT
NULL
# EXAMPLE
~~~c
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
CURLcode res;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/foo.bin");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY, "https://proxy:443");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PROXY_KEYPASSWD, "superman");
res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
}
