.SH SYNOPSIS

Pass a pointer that will be untouched by libcurl and passed as the first

argument in the progress callback set with \fICURLOPT_PROGRESSFUNCTION\fP.

.TP

.B CURLOPT_PASSWDFUNCTION

Pass a pointer to a \fIcurl_passwd_callback\fP function that will be called

instead of the internal one if libcurl requests a password. The function must

match this prototype: \fBint getpass(void *client, char *prompt, char* buffer,

int buflen );\fP.  If set to NULL, it sets back the function to the internal

default one. If the function returns a non-zero value, it will abort the

operation and an error (CURLE_BAD_PASSWORD_ENTERED) will be returned.

\fIclient\fP is a generic pointer, see \fICURLOPT_PASSWDDATA\fP.  \fIprompt\fP

is a zero-terminated string that is text that prefixes the input request.

\fIbuffer\fP is a pointer to data where the entered password should be stored

and \fIbuflen\fP is the maximum number of bytes that may be written in the

buffer.

.TP

.B CURLOPT_PASSWDDATA

Pass a void * to whatever data you want. The passed pointer will be the first

argument sent to the specifed \fICURLOPT_PASSWDFUNCTION\fP function.

.TP

.B CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION

Function pointer that should match the following prototype: \fIsize_t

function( void *ptr, size_t size, size_t nmemb, void *stream);\fP. This
