Changes in 7.10.7 - August 15 2003

Changes:

• CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH was added to allow different authentication methods on proxies (--proxy-ntlm was added to the curl tool).
• --ftp-create-dirs and CURLOPT_FTP_CREATE_MISSING_DIRS were added
• optional and still experimetal asynch name resolve support
• getting headers-only and no-body from FTP can now reply "Accept-Ranges" if the server seems to support REST.

Bugfixes:

• fixed a memory leak on re-used connections with proxy-authentication
• cookies with no contents are sent off too now
• 64bit-related bugfix for uploads
• file:// URLs with drive letters now work on windows and OS/2
• The output numbering (#[num]) on url globbing didn't work due to a bug in curl_msprintf()
• FTP persitent download directory re-use problem fixed
• cookie parser now only requires two dots in cookie domain
• FOLLOWLOCATION (or -L) did not always ignore the redirect page properly
• information leak fixed. When proxy authentication is used in a CONNECT request (as used for all SSL connects and otherwise enforced tunnel-thru-proxy requests), the same authentication header was also wrongly sent to the remote host.
• the VC++ Makefiles were updated
• builds better on VMS
• src/hugehelp.c is now distributed uncompressed in the source package
• the mkhelp script now compresses properly on DOS/Windows
