 .IP CURLOPT_SHARE
 Pass a share handle as a parameter. The share handle must have been created by
-a previous call to curl_share_init(). Setting this option, will make this curl
-handle use the data from the shared handle instead of keeping the data to
-itself. This enables several curl handles to share data. If the curl handles
-are used simultaneously, you \fBMUST\fP use the locking methods in the share
-handle. See \fIcurl_share_setopt(3)\fP for details.
